I don't have a spare USB stick or optical drive, and am hoping I can install Ubuntu onto an external SSD without either of those things somehow. I've tried using both Rufus and UNetbootin, but both of these programs only create the trial version of the OS; it doesn't seem that they can either install the full operating system or set-up for a full install after booting from the external SSD.



I don't suppose anyone has a solution for this?
