Install Ubuntu Linux on an External USB Drive

This tutorial shows the steps for actually installing Ubuntu Linux on an external US drive with the bootloader installed on the USB. It is NOT live USB set up. This USB will work as portable operating system and can be used on any computer system.

If you do the latter also make sure you install Grub on the usb drive.

I had to re install Ubuntu from my usb because timeshift kept creating stuff amd crashed my entire system couldn't even load gnome manager.

Newly installed 25.10 looks great tho.

Also. I create my usb drives with drofus on android. It works flawlessly with usbs. But woth external hard drives it has troubles.

Also I really need to fit doing school with hackthebox into my schedule so for now I'll be doing school work and layer tonight I'll be back online to fond a solution. Also it isn't that necessary to have an external hard drive I can boot from because I'm getting a new laptop for Christmas woth 1tb hard drive space. It would've just been very convenient to be able to do whenever I didn't feel like cramming more junk into my main drive. Thanks in advance.
