Life on a thumbdrive.

Post by Felino »

Okies, I have an ambition, to run my life off a thumb drive. Currently my school as so many blocks on its not funny, so we are fighting back!

With our trusty thumbdrives we are taking back our freedom! Currently we are running all of the below off out thumbdrives.

SNES9x, pj64, racer, tightVNC, some lan chat app, tremulous, a hacked up copy of starcraft, and a copy of linux (bootable). Now, i had a question from somone concerning running os'es off a thumbdrive, and i asked here about running windows off a thumbdrive, i found this has isssues (with the way windows loads the usb ports, the thumb drive gets dropped). So i thought, why not run a virtual machine with windows on it, and run it all self contained?

Now, how can i do this, it there any freeware, or payware (i don't care) i can use? Thanks.

-Fel.

EDIT: I got contacts about 4 weeks aggo, i forgot to mention it anywere. They pwn! I recomend them to anyone!

Mojopac should be able to do what you want. You can install any Windows app on it, and it leaves no traces on the host PC.

BTW, I got contacts in April. They are awesome. 8)

Does it have to be windows? Try SLAX, or DSL; they can be booted from flashdrives.
BTW, this is a good idea; I need to pick up a flash drive before school starts...
Why is it that every time I post in a thread, it dies?

Our school fails at MojoPac.


Can i ask a favor of somone please?

I need a small app for windowz, that simply opens 'my network places'. Getting into that is blocked here.

Thanks Skyone!
