    Great show! It is pronounced E-pis-l like the chat room mentioned. An ancient word for letter.

    Hard “heard” monies? That doesn’t make any sense. You mean hard *earned* monies.

    Incidentally there’s a win32 variant of this called Pendrive Linux (http://www.pendrivelinux.com). I’ve had really good luck with it for making and occasionally retrieve the necessary iso’s for bootable flash drives. I’ve been using it to play with the distro flavor of the week for the past 8 months.

    I agree Chris, gParted is one of the best partition utilities available.

    Linux noob here …. I’ve got 2 Patriot USBs (Xporters … faster than typical 2.0) that are now bootable with:

    8 gig – Ubuntu 10.10 with Casper persistence( http://www.pendrivelinux.com/universal-usb-installer-easy-as-1-2-3/

    16 gig – a plethora of utilities and multiple Linux distros using YUMI
    http://www.pendrivelinux.com/yumi-multiboot-usb-creator/

    I’m am a computer enthusiast and the default family computer guy.  These set ups have been priceless in saving friends / family data when Windows has puked for whatever reason.  The most recent was a nephew’s dropped laptop.  The disc was still operable, but Windows not.  Ubuntu 10.10 on USB coupled with an external drive saved his data.  My reinstall for him included 10.10 and his version of Windows. 

    Also notable is my granddaughter’s eeePC netbook.  A great little machine with W7 Starter.  While I haven’t timed it I swear that booting and running 10.10 via USB is faster than W7S and offers more features.

    I love Freedom.  ;-)

    Hi guys. Thx for the unetbootin episode. However, have u guys heard of Multisystem offered by a company called Pendrive Linux (I think)? It allows u to have multiple live isos (it uses grub 2). I have been using it for ages and have multiple tools kike the 32 and 64 bit clonezillas, puppy Linux, gparted, slitaz, tails and pinguy os all in one 4 gb USB with place to spare for regular USB usage.

    The only distros that I have not managed to put in yet are dsl and haiku. Haven’t tried bsds so far. I carry the USB everywhere so that I can use it to help my friends, if they need.

    GoDaddy can bite my ass. Great company until you actually have to deal with them.

    win7 is great but putting it on a netbook is atrocious. it’s butt slow. of course the userbase of these netbooks are clueless noobs like the uzbeki guy that came to out shop with an arm netbook that couldn’t run any software.
