I would like to know where does data stores when I use apt-get install in a live environment (2GB USB). Does this write data on the HDD?

Thanks.

It writes it to the available RAM, thus when you restart your computer it will be gone... That is unless you are using a persistent USB Live Disc, Then it will put it on the flash drive, but at 2GB's you are going to fill it pretty quickly...
