You could always do a direct install to a USB stick and
do a dnf (yum) to install the http server. That way,
it won't be volatile, like a live DVD.


Todd, that's interesting.  I don't quite follow.

What do you mean by a 'direct install' to a USB stick? Do you mean install Fedora, but onto a USB stick instead of onto a hard drive /dev/sda1 or whatever? And then, presumably, boot from USB as needed.

Would such an 'installation' then also run on a completely different laptop, with different network card, graphics, etc?

I wondered whether you meant put the iso on a USB stick and use that instead of a DVD but still run the USB stick as a 'live' sort of system. In this latter case, then the stick could be run in a variety of laptops/desktops, in the same way that a live CD can be run, because it loads the appropriate drivers etc for whatever hardware it finds.

If you meant a full install but onto a USB stick instead of onto a hard drive, then I guess installing an http server onto that USB installation is just like installing it onto a normal hard drive, and once installed it's always there (of course).

It's certainly a thought.  Thanks.

Ron
