Step1: Set the Label on Your USB Memory Stick
1. Connect the USB memory stick to a computer running Ubuntu. Ubuntu will probably mount it automatically
2. find the device name that it has been assigned
3. Open Applications --> Accessories--> Terminal
4. type the following at the shell prompt
$ df -h
5. The Output will look like the following
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/hda3 54G 19G 35G 36% / varrun 506M 84K 506M 1% /var/run varlock 506M 0 506M 0% /var/lock udev 506M 116K 506M 1% /dev devshm 506M 0 506M 0% /dev/shm /dev/hda1 221M 28M 181M 14% /boot /dev/sda1 498M 214M 285M 43% /media/usbdisk
6. USB storage devices are emulated as SCSI devices by Linux, and you can see the last device is listed as /dev/sda1
7.Once you've backed up your files , To Unmount the device
$ sudo umount
2. Boot the Live CD in Persistent Mode
1. Plug your USB memory stick into the target machine
2. power up the computer, and quickly insert the Dapper Drake Live CD
3.If the computer is not configured to boot from CD-ROM, you may need to press a key (typically Del or F2) at startup to enter the BIOS settings menu
4. you then need to change the order of the boot devices to put CD-ROM at the top of the list, and then select the Exit option
5.The computer will then boot up again and look for the Live CD before attempting to boot from the hard disk
6.Some computers have a menu (often activated by F12) that lets you choose which device to boot from without having to make changes to your BIOS.
Note: If you are using a Mac, you need to hold down the C key to boot from a CD
