I run my #BlockstreamJade #Bitcoin Hardware Wallet on a Ubuntu installation on a 32 USB stick. It is the USB stick on the previous image side by side with Jade.
This is a guide on how to install Ubuntu on a USB stick.

This is a more general guide that should work in any linux distro

I usually install the distro in a virtual machine. Usually virtualbox.
Then I create a backup of the disk with dd command.

Restore that backup on a USB stick.
And then resize the partitions to fill the entire USB stick.

Another thing worth mention, if you have in issue on the #BlockstreamJade wallet being detected on your Linux distro. Try to connect it directly to the computer. Don't use any USB Hub.
And this is the exactly same 32GB USB stick running in a Legacy Bios machine.

With this setup your #BlockstreamJade #Bitcoin Hardware Wallet will run in every computer that the kernel installed supports.
It is a good setup for a emergency.
One of the advantages of using LUKS+LVM installation images created in virtual machines.
It's a encrypted portable installation.
It can be restored in any storage size device with more size than the image itself.
I used a 32GB USB stick. But I could used 64GB/128GB or even external hard drives with TB.
And used LVM to fill the entire storage available.
So this allow to run a portable linux distro with your #BlockstreamJade #Bitcoin Hardware Wallet in a large option of storage devices with different storage capacity. That will work in most hardware out there. Even in computers with legacy BIOS.
