!! Special distributions for removable media
Some [LinuxDistribution]s can be booted from removable media such as a FloppyDisk, a [LiveCD], or a KeyDrive and don't require installation (or indeed any kind of write access at all) to HardDisk. Such a media provides both an excellent way to try out a LinuxDistribution without having to change your [Partition]s as well as a great tool platform for things like network diagnosis and system repair (be it for [Linux] or other [OperatingSystem]s).
