    On my work laptop I boot to Aurora Linux from an USBC caddy with an M2 SSD inside. The laptop’s internal drive is still factory fresh.

    Ask your IT guy, he might be cool with that. The laptop itself is unchanged. Windows OEM license untouched.

      Glad you have a cool IT team. As an IT guy, I also want to remind people that if you don’t ask, the answer is automatically no.

      I guess i haven’t thought much about live booting. I guess that could be nice for travel. Bring one fewer devices.
