Live USB OSes like Ubuntu Linux apply all filesystem writes to a casper filesystem overlay (casper-rw) that, once full or out of flash drive space, becomes unusable and the OS ceases to boot. [citation needed] USB controllers on add-in cards (e.g. ISA, PCI, and PCI-E) are almost never capable of being booted from, so systems that do not have ...
Rufus was originally designed [5] as a modern open source replacement for the HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool for Windows, [6] which was primarily used to create DOS bootable USB flash drives. The first official release of Rufus, version 1.0.3 (earlier versions were internal/alpha only [ 7 ] ), was released on December 4, 2011, with originally ...
A modern PC is configured to attempt to boot from various devices in a certain order. If a computer is not booting from the device desired, such as the floppy drive, the user may have to enter the BIOS Setup function by pressing a special key when the computer is first turned on (such as Delete, F1, F2, F10 or F12), and then changing the boot order.

Prediction by partial matching (PPM) is an adaptive statistical data compression technique based on context modeling and prediction. PPM models use a set of previous symbols in the uncompressed symbol stream to predict the next symbol in the stream. PPM algorithms can also be used to cluster data into predicted groupings in cluster analysis.
Pulse-position modulation (PPM) is a form of signal modulation in which M message bits are encoded by transmitting a single pulse in one of possible required time shifts. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] This is repeated every T seconds, such that the transmitted bit rate is M / T {\displaystyle M/T} bits per second.
The Aakash 2 (also sold as the Ubislate 7Ci) [6] is an Android-based tablet computer produced by British company DataWind. [7] In an announcement in March 2012, the Telecom Minister, Mr. Kapil Sibal, who was also in charge of Ministry of Human Resources and Development had announced that DoT (Department of Telecom) had cleared the proposal to distribute 50 lakh (5 million) units of tablet PCs ...
The Ultimate Boot CD contains freeware and open-source diagnostic tools from a variety of sources. Many of these tools were originally designed to boot from a floppy disk drive. The Ultimate Boot CD made it possible to run them on a PC without a floppy drive. [5] UBCD can also run from USB for computers without an optical drive. [5]
A typical British quasi-PPM. Each division between '1' and '7' is exactly four decibels and '6' is the intended maximum level. A peak programme meter (PPM) is an instrument used in professional audio that indicates the level of an audio signal. Different kinds of PPM fall into broad categories: True peak programme meter. This shows the peak ...
