    Any computer that meets the minimum requirements for Fedora will support booting from USB. The only reason left to boot from a DVD is if you need read only media for security purposes.

      Or you know, MP3s on DVD for the car.

        Do you boot Linux from your music player?

          Sounds like a project to me!

        Did you misread? They wrote “the only reason left to boot from a DVD”, so the use case you replied with has nothing to do with the topic.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Rules

  • Posts must be relevant to operating systems running the Linux kernel. GNU/Linux or otherwise.
  • No misinformation
  • No NSFW content
