Installing from a memory stick is useful if you have a computer without a CD drive (such as a netbook), or prefer the convenience of a memory stick. Alternative methods are available.

It should take around 30 minutes to complete this process, plus the time it takes to download the 700MB installer file. Downloading from a torrent is by far the fastest way of getting it.

To install Ubuntu from a USB memory stick you need:

  • A memory stick with a capacity of at least 2GB. It will be formatted (erased) during this process, so copy any files that you want to keep to another location. They will all be permanently deleted from the memory stick.
  • A computer that can boot (start-up) from a USB memory stick. Many older computers can’t boot from USB – check the boot options in your BIOS (see Start the Ubuntu installer) to see if yours can.
  • A computer with
    • at least 384MB of system memory (RAM) for Lubuntu Alternate 32-bit. Other flavours of Ubuntu need at least 1 GB RAM, standard Ubuntu and Kubuntu need 2 GB RAM to work well.
    • 6GB of available hard disk space and
    • a 700MHz or faster x86 processor for Lubuntu. Other flavours of Ubuntu need a more powerful processor, at least a Pentium 4 or similar processor (made around 2004 or later). Most Intel and AMD processors are x86 processors. 32-bit and 64-bit processors are supported.
  • standard Ubuntu wants 3-d graphics processing which means at least a core 2 duo processor or similar processor and/or a decent graphics card.
  • A working Internet connection.

    At least Windows recovery disks, and backup of all important personal data files.

You need a copy of the Ubuntu installer CD image (.iso) so that you can put it on a memory stick.

The version 16.04.1 LTS of standard Ubuntu or one of the community flavours (Kubuntu, Lubuntu . Xubuntu) is a good choice.

Choose your country (or one nearby) from the Download location drop-down list.

Click Begin download to download the .iso image file needed to install Ubuntu. This will be about 700MB in size.

You can choose other options, like a 64-bit CD image or a BitTorrent download, by clicking Alternative download options.

You need to download a program that can properly put the installer onto a memory stick. You can’t just copy the .iso file onto the memory stick.

Extract the iso file

    Plug-in your USB memory stick.

Go to https://rufus.akeo.ie/ and download the Rufus USB installer. Put it on your Desktop or somewhere convenient.

Alternative: Clone the iso file with Win32 Disk Imager according to

To start your computer from a memory stick, you might need to change the order of boot devices:


Figure 1 — The Ubuntu boot screen

  1. Plug-in the memory stick and restart your computer.
    • BIOS mode: You should see a purple Ubuntu boot screen with white icons at the bottom (Figure 1).
    • UEFI mode: You should see a black screen with a GNU GRUB menu.
    • If your computer boots back into Windows, it is not yet set-up to boot from USB, so continue following these steps. Otherwise your computer has successfully booted from the memory stick. Skip to the Install Ubuntu section.

If your computer boots back into Windows, restart the computer again. As soon as the first text appears on the screen, press the button to enter your BIOS/system setup. There should be a message telling you how to do this. You normally need to press one of the following keys: F1, F2, Del, Esc, F10, F11, or F12.
A BIOS screen should appear. Find the option to change the Boot Order and change the first item in the boot order list to be USB Disk, or similar.

    The USB Disk option may have a different name on your computer, for example: Removable Drive; USB-HDD; USB Mass Storage; or USB.

If there is no option to boot from USB Disk, your computer may not be able to boot from USB. See the for a tool to test if your computer can boot from USB.

  • After you have changed the boot order, save your changes and restart the computer. It should now start from the memory stick.
  • If you have successfully booted from your memory stick, you should now be looking at a menu with purple background in BIOS mode or black background in UEFI mode. To start the Ubuntu installer:

      In BIOS mode: Wait a few seconds and Ubuntu will start loading. Otherwise, you can press a key and a boot menu with more options will appear.

    Press the F5 key to access universal access options like the screen reader and magnifier.

    After a few second or a minute or two (depending on your hardware), an Install window will appear. Select your language from the list to the left of the screen and select

    Try Ubuntu or

    Install Ubuntu


    Figure 2 — The partitioning screen

    When you get to the Partitioning screen (Figure 2, full size), choose one of the following options to determine how to put Ubuntu on your hard disk:

    If you want to keep Windows installed and choose whether to start Windows or Ubuntu each time you start the computer, choose Install Ubuntu alongs >

    If you want to remove Windows and replace it with Ubuntu, choose Erase disk and install Ubuntu. All of the files on the disk will be deleted before Ubuntu is put on it, so make sure you have backup copies of anything you wanted to keep.

    For more complicated disk layouts, choose Something Else. You can manually add, modify and delete disk partitions using this option.


    Figure 3 — Partitioning warning message

    When you click Forward, you may receive a message saying that the changes will be applied (Figure 3). This normally happens if you resized a partition. If you click Continue, your hard disk will be changed permanently and you won’t be able to go back. Make sure you’re happy with any changes that you made.
    Follow the rest of the instructions to choose a username and password and migrate files and settings from Windows.

    Click Install. The installation will begin, and should take 10-20 minutes to complete. When it is finished, choose to restart the computer and then remove your memory stick. Ubuntu should start to load.

    You should now be able to log in to Ubuntu and start using it. Here are some tips to help you get started:

    Click the Applications menu at the top of the screen to start a program.
    Click the Network Manager icon (near to the speaker icon) at the top right of the screen to connect to the Internet.

    Use the System menu to change settings.

    You can find help by clicking System -> Help and Support.

    I can’t boot from USB even though I have USB Disk (or similar) as the first option in my boot list

    Sometimes the memory stick will not be recognized when you boot. Leave it plugged in for 30 seconds or so, then restart with it left plugged-in. Or, unplug the memory stick, restart the computer and then plug it in as soon as anything appears on the screen (i.e. as early in the boot process as possible).

    Also, some BIOS options could interfere with USB booting. Go into the BIOS and try enabling or disabling options like Fast Boot, USB keyboard support and USB 2.0 support. Finally, make sure you haven’t selected a USB-FDD or USB-ZIP boot option. These will not work.

    Is it safer to resize my partition in Windows?

    Some people experience problems when booting into Windows, after they have resized the Windows partition using the Ubuntu installer. See HowtoResizeWindowsPartitions for a gu >

    Just downloaded Ubuntu 18.04 LTS Desktop ISO file and I want to install from USB.

    Do I need to uncompress the ISO file on to the USB, to make it bootable?

    First of all you need to download Rufus. Then double click on the setup and you might see a interface like this:

    Click on Device to select the USB drive and choose the downloaded ISO image by clicking on the disc icon next to Create a bootable disk using .

    Click on Start. After the process finishes and Ready appears like in Screenshot your USB will become bootable.

    The easy way is to clone from the iso file to the USB pendrive

    There is no need for uncompression. The iso file can be cloned directly as it is, each byte copied directly.

    • In Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and newer versions you can use the Startup Disk Creator for this purpose.
    • In older versions of Ubuntu and in other linux distros you can use Disks alias gnome-disks or mkusb.
    • In Windows you can use Win32 Disk Imager. All these tools ask for a final confirmation, which make them safer than the command line tool dd (but all of them do the job, also dd , when set correctly).
