Good grief. I take a few days out for more pressing concerns, come back (and into the Puppy forum to see what's what).....and stumble into all this....
Jeez Louise. Somebody slap me with a wet fish, willya? What da hell's going ON...???
At the op, if it is your habit to express your frustration with expletive language, you will get better results on forums if you leave it out. Not judging, I have nephews/grandsons that talk/express themselves the same way.
live iso's are only for testing, not for every day use/installing software and will have to be reinstalled with a major update.
There are two types of programs that puts iso's onto a usb.
One type will format the usb and write the contents of iso to usb. With these you are still able to write data to the usb.
some of the older programs that worked great at one time, but not so good with the newer uefi systems, stil come up in searches as a recommendation, even through the post is over 8 years old.
rufus is a windows program that I use for this type of install and should work with puppy linux.
The other writes bit for bit the the iso to the usb and the usb has similar properties as a cd/dvd, you can't not write data to the usb. I think etcher is a program that does this, along with the dd command used in linux to put iso onto usb.
If you want to install a full working linux distro to usb, you will need two usb. One for the iso, minimum 4-8gb usb. Another one, minimum 32gb to install to.
