OPENSUSE v31.1 will not boot from liveusb gives installation options instead.
It's 13.2 not 31.1 my bad i cannot change it now.
i once got myslef persistent live usb for ubuntu wich was slow, when i removed casper-rw it became fast again,
i wasn't happy with it anyway cuz it didnt wanna use all the space it had wich is 30gb when i tried to make a casper-rw partition with other linux the gparted program crashed, so i switched to opensuse, i made myself a liveusb usin this tutoiral https://pl.opensuse.org/SDB:Live_USB_stick but it didnt give me liveusb boot option instead i could only: install, rescue system, upgrade and chceck install media. i want to use a linux liveusb I DONT WANT TO INSTALL ANYTHING because i need to have all my stuff everywhere i go. not on a single computer. on every computer.
I do know this is partially about ubuntu, ignore that.
and yes i have searched deep enough ( i even went to the second page of google search results, ugh) for fix for these problems but i aint found anything. thats why i wrote this thread.

Please, read the LQ rules about text-speak, and not using it.
Also, going to the second page of a Google search isn't that much effort. If you read the first page of the openSUSE download site: https://software.opensuse.org/132/en
..you'd see a link, that says "Click here to display these alternative versions.". If you click it, it will show you both live versions, KDE and Gnome. Pick one.
I think you might consider installing OpenSuse to the usb flash drive. The Live to usb creators use a compressed image copied off the iso. In some cases it is faster.
The reason I suggest that you create a real install to the usb is to both give yourself ability to do major updates and proper installs of apps. It could slow your experience down. Always use a fast usb. Can use a usb hard drive too but for most new distro's a usb is like any internal drive.
