Hello Wayne,

It is absolutely possible to install Kiwi Linux to a flash drive from Windows. You will require the following –

  1. PC with Windows installed in it.
  2. ISO image for Kiwi, it can be downloaded from Kiwi Linux website.
  3. A utility like Universal USB Installer, which is essentially a tool that allows choosing from a set of Linux distributions to be put on a pen drive.
  4. A FAT32 formatted USB pen drive (Universal USB Installer can format the USB) with at least 2 GB of free space.

These steps when followed should help install Kiwi Linux in a flash drive –

  1. Start Universal USB Installer, and select Kiwi. Kiwi Linux in a flash drive
  2. Start the process by clicking create.
  3. Once the process has finished, restart your PC, set your boot options in BIOS to boot from the USB device, save changes and reboot.
  4. If everything is fine, then you should be able to boot into Kiwi.

 

Hope these steps help you.
