Live Linux distro list?

posted 4 days ago

Does anybody know of a list of usb live-bootable distros, with links to the download pages?

I have a coworker who wants to switch his gaming computer over to Linux, he has Linux experience but from like a decade ago.

He’s not partial to any particular distro, so I was hoping to just put together a multiboot flash drive with a bunch of live images he could try. But I’m not sure what I should include, and what has live images, vs. install only images.

I’m most comfortable in an environment with apt, so Debian and Mint are of course already covered, but if the gaming-specific distros have live usb images, that would probably be the best thing for him to try.

Endeavouros has a live bootable version which is just basically better Nobara in my humble opinion, you just need to install steam through pacman and for the most part you are good to go.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
