Can't wait for the virus that uses this to replace a windows install with a Linux install that's riced to look like windows. Will the normies even notice?

Do yourself a favor and get a USB stick with Linux on it, regardless of whether or not you are going to use it to install Linux.

When stuff breaks, you'll regret not having a bootable media like that. Also, if you are using windows and Bitlocker (the default these days), then be sure to store your encryption keys somewhere, where you can easily access them. Otherwise you won't be able to access your Windows drives
