Hi,
Few days back I created a Ubnutu live USB. But I recognize that its not good
for my day to day use as it doesnot allow me to add my own packages like
VLC.
Is this a general problem with all Live USB as there are live dvd creator
which allows me to add my own packages.
I think its good idea to add this feature as USB is read wirte device not
read only like DVD so that user can install their own software and customize
thier live USB.
Thanks,
Onkar
