How to save Linux Live CD files on your hard drive?
Q. Is it possible to save Linux Live CD files on your hard drive of the computer you are using it on so it doesnt get erased everytime you take the disc out? If so please explain, thanks. :)

A. Hi
Just use puppy linux frugal install.
Just start the puppy cd burnt to a cd from the iso downloaded from the puppy site.
Then do a frugal install from the universal installer found in menu>>setup.
This will place 6 files of total 140MB on to your windows drive.
When you close down you can make a save file.
Just pop in the puppy cd into the drive and the files will be booted from your hard drive. No cd in drive = windows.
There is no need to install grub or format your drive until you have more experience.

Which is the smallest Linux distro which can read ntfs partitions?
