Creating a Linux Live USB key is then a five easy steps process:

  • Step 1: Choose a USB key or drive in the list
  • Step 2: Select an ISO file or a CD
  • Step 3: Choose the size of persistent data (usually between 250 MB and 2 GB)
  • Step 4: Check the options you want
  • Step 5: Click the lightning button to start the creation

Moreover, each mandatory step (1, 2 and 3) has a traffic light to indicate its state:
