Installing Linux Mint via USB on Your PC

Hello readers , in this guide we will show you the method of installing Linux Mint on your PC .

Linux Mint is one of the best  , super fast , lightweight , customizable and totally free Operating system and my favorite too ... So , let's get started to the business .

First thing you need to keep in mind is that please backup your data , otherwise it will be deleted during installation . If you are installing Linux Mint over your current operating system, you will lose any data stored on the hard drive. Make sure that all of your important documents and files are securely backed up before starting the installation process.

WHAT YOU NEED ?

1) ISO File of Linux Mint . Download it from https://www.linuxmint.com/download.php

2) A USB . (minimum 4 GB)

3) Any program that can burn ISO to the USB . I prefer Unetbootin . Download it from here http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/

First , install Unetbootin in your PC . Open it and do things as shown in the image .

Select your USB drive which you want to boot in (Arrow 5) . Software will now take some time to burn the ISO .Wait for it .

*Congratzz you now have the bootable ISO of linux mint . 

Go into the bios and set it to read from usb during boot.This is different for every computer so do some research.Once you have enabled this , restart with the usb plugged in.You will see a screen similar to the image.Choose default and let it do its thing.

NOW ITS TIME TO INSTALL IT :

Now its all loaded up and on the home screen(hopefully).
You will see an icon that looks like a disk and says install.
Click on it and it will.. wait for it.. install!
During the install it will ask you questions to set your preferences. All very straightforward.
You will have to reboot and that's that. Done :)

Well,that's it, you should have Linux working.If something went wrong or you don't understand then just ask a question!
