Installing as persistent USB

The following section will guide you through the steps to install Athena OS in a persistent USB by covering all the possible choices you could set.

Before starting, you need two USB drives:

  • USB-1: for creating bootable media
  • USB-2: on which persistent Athena OS will be installed

Burn Athena OS ISO on USB-1 as described in the Installation prepare guide.

After that, reboot the system while keeping USB-1 plugged in your USB port and you will be shown:

EFI Boot

and select Athena OS install medium.

Once you land on the Live Environment, attach USB-2 to a different USB port and be sure it is working, and follow the System Installation documentation.

In case the bootloader is broken, you must repair it.
