I am working on windows 10 currently. I was wondering if MX Linux could be installed directly from online. Thanks for taking the time to reply.

      I guess that’s the word, yes.

      A thingy you plug into an USB port for saving files on it.

        A pendrive is a pretty expensive item. Nevertheless, it’s probably the best method to install Linux.

          New ones are something like 64 GB and do indeed cost some 8 € or so, but since you only need some 4 GB, you can find a used one for 0,50 € or so :)

            It’s said that €5 isn’t a lot of money, but a standard pendrive wouldn’t come less than ₹700-800, and that’s a lot of money.

              That’s what I guessed and decided to talk about the 8 € as big money. Because when I was living in Ukraine, where some people had a monthly salary of 70 €, it was indeed big money.

              But anyway, you can get a used pendrive for 40 INR for sure. No need to pay 700 for a new one with 64 GB, if a used one with 4 GB suffices for your needs :)

                Any pendrive doesn’t come less than INR600-700. Anyways, i found out one having 29.2 GB of free space.
