If I run ubuntu on a flash stick as the instructions say, then install it, where does it install to? I have windows 10 and windows 7 on two different disks on a Asus computer with 16 GB memory, and want to run ubuntu on a different drive but not mess up the boot manager by installing it on one of the two disks internally. Someone explain the process of how to run ubuntu on a flash stick without messing up the boot manager on the uefi bios .
