It is easy to install Ubuntu on a USB device.

I can install Windows 7 on USB with the help of nt6.zip. But how can I install both Windows and Linux on USB?

It shouldn't be any problem to install windows and GNU/Linux on an external hdd. This should work in exactly the same way as installing to an internal hdd.

  • But when you install windows 7, it allocate a new partition of disk. Mar 23, 2013 at 1:58
  • I don't understand your sentence and what you mean by that, but to install Windows 7 and GNU/Linux in dual boot, install Windows 7 first (create an extra partition for GNU/Linux in the windows installer) and then install GNU/Linux to the other partition. If you forgot to create the second partition, use Gparted to shrink the windows 7 partition and use the free space to create a new partition to install GNU/Linux to.
