I am using Gecko XFCE 423.180107.0 as a LIVE USB stick for when I want to shop or do banking, etc.

Is it possible to add the Chrome browser to the LIVE USB, so that it will always be there when I start Gecko?

If so, is there a how to ?

Thanks

Hi there, yes, you can just open the YaST Software manager and install chrome, and it should persist on the USB.

Hmm, so no, I guess it doesn't persist. You could download the tarball version, and extract it somewhere in the live system, and run it from there:

Do you mean updating the live system or the installed system?

I'm glad to hear that, thanks for saying so!
