do the rest like this:
1)
Code: Select all
#mkdir -p /mnt/sdd1/usr/local/texlive
2)*
open a ROX window (click on your USB stick) and navigate to the directory /mnt/sdd1/usr/local
open a 2nd ROX window (click e.g. on the Home Desktop Icon). Navigate to the directory /usr/local
left klick on the directory folder "texlive" in the first ROX window and keep mouse button pressed down, drag the folder to the 2nd ROX window. Release the left mouse button.
A window will appear which offers to move, copy or create Link (relativ or absolute). Choose to create a link, either relativ or absolute is fine.
3) then run the installer again. It will write to /usr/local/texlive, but since this is a link to /mnt/sdd1/usr/local/texlive everything will go to the stick
4) to test the installation, get the directory in your PATH as described in my previous post.
5) if it works well enough, you can create a texlive sfs on your stick
Code: Select all
#cd /mnt/sdd1
#mksquashfs usr texlive-my.sfs -keep-as-directory
if in doubt, google, stackexchange, and of course murga-linux are your friends.
