I have a 32GB no-brand USB Flash drive, and I want to install the full Ubuntu onto it (excuse my bad English please); I'm trying to install it the right way (from a CD) but it is taking 6 hours, and I've just lost my patience. I need a way to just extract it on the USB as is, and to try it (like you'll do with any kind of portable software). Is there anything like this? And no, I'm not looking for the "live Ubuntu" I want "full Ubuntu"; and anyway, I'm planning to keep it on the same PC, not gonna use it on different ones.

A 32GB no-brand USB 2.0 flash drive isn't very fast. I think what you are seeing is indicative of the performance you'll see when you run Ubuntu off that flash drive. It will not be a joy t0 use.
If you're planning on using that installation on different physical machines, you may find that it's be installed for the software it was running on at the time you installed it. Running it on different hardware may cause you additional troubles.

If you are in Live CD:
Open Dash by pressing "Super" button and type startup disk creator
Above choose your CD as a place to take Ubuntu .iso
Below choose your USB.
- Choose Discarded on shutdown, unless you save them elsewhere option if you don't want to create a persistent Usb.
