So this is one for you Unix heads out there....
Two questions...

1. Which version of the Knoppix Adriene CD do I need? I want to throw it on a USB and take it with me on any computer. Let's say I get a 8gb stick, can I make it persistent or is it persistent once I put the iso on the memory stick?

1A. Also can I install Firefox and Thunderbird on Adriene Knoppix?

2. I like Solus but....I'm curious about Manjaro, is it actually easy to get going and runs well with Orca?
