Did you do an actual install of Mint to the flash drive or are you using a Live CD on flash? If the former, yes you can. If it it a Live CD on flash, no you can't as it is read-only and any changes are lost on reboot unless you created it with persistence.

Hi...

If your computer supports booting from USB, then yes, you can but it won't change what yancek has stated.

Since this thread is partly about Flash Player, if you need help installing Mint to your hard drive, please create a different thread for this. Thanks!
