Most of the  Linux installation that is being done to a  computer hardware like for example ,  a   PC/Desktop or  a Laptop or a Tablet or an  Engineering Workstation ,  is done with a  Linux Installation DVD, regardless of what LINUX Distro that we   are using .  Another way of installing a Linux Operating System to all those computer hardware  is by using a USB THUMBDRIVE .   A  Linux installation files  is stored inside a  USB THUMBDRIVE  and the USB THUMBDRIVE is connected to the USB port of  of  a   PC/Desktop or  a Laptop or a Tablet or an  Engineering Workstation. To begin the Linux installation on a   PC/Desktop or  a Laptop or a Tablet or an  Engineering Workstation ,  make sure that the  BIOS/UEFI   is set up in such a way that the  USB THUMBDRIVE  is booted up first , before anything else .  Then after that just follow all the neccessary  steps just like what we did when we do a Linux OS installation with a DVD .

The  USB THUMBDRIVE  is made by burning a  Linux.iso to a USB THUMBDRIVE  with the help of RUFUS software .  The Linux.iso  can be downloaded from any Linux Distro of our choice which is available on the Internet , and it can be downloaded to a  folder(it is usually kept in the "Download"  folder of a Windows 10 machine) using a  Windows 10 machine and the RUFUS sofware (which can be downloaded from the Internet and is installed inside the Windows 10 machine before it can be use) inside the Windows 10 machine is used to  burn the  Linux.iso to a  USB THUMBDRIVE whereby the  USB THUMBDRIVE is connected to the USB port of the  Windows 10 machine.
