It will take etcher about 20 minutes to create your bootable Mint flash drive. Ask if any more questions. If you like Mint you can get Chrome Edge Brave installed. Chrome is easiest to install. Just go to Chrome website you will see Debian (Mint’s cousin) version to download.
Thanks for feedback - much appreciated.
1. Is there any significant difference between Etcher, Rufus, Ventoy?
2. My understanding is if MINT is on a USB to use “Live”, you lose all settings, etc each time you exit & remove the USB - is this correct?
I’ve reached a point that W11’s memory bloat is almost 60% of my 8gb of RAM on my ASUS Zenbook compared to 20% when I bought it a few years ago.
Add to the constant “window flashing” of “Node.js”, it’s really become very, very annoying.
