Also, Steam for Linux is in beta so there are a few glitches (console shows up and you have to accept installing stuff from there on first use) and there is only a small library of games for it (TF2 works, but FAST hard drive highly recommended). You can then install the Steam for Linux beta or use Wine/Crossover to get you full library of games (Wine/Crossover are buggier but more games are accessible).ĭisclaimer: I'm not responsible if you screw stuff up. Once installed, go to school/work and plug in your hard drive and access the boot menu (Dell: F12 HP: Automatic if plugged in and reboot, wait a while as HPs take a long time to show bootloader after boot, but it does eventually) and start Ubuntu.

Most computers have a boot menu, if you want, use an Ubuntu Live CD/USB to install to an external hard drive/large and fast USB stick (WARNING: make sure you set the boot-loader to install on that drive as well as the OS or you'll screw up the computer you're using) P.s can someone help me make a splash screen for this! i would be very happy! and once again please do not criticize me! this project is UNFINISHED!!! so don't complain.

for more information go to also i need to change the icon, all this will be done when i have time. One of the problems with it that it extracts some(well a lot) files in a temp file, some computers at school my not allow this but its the best i can do for now!. How to install: extract the steamportable folder into your 'PortableApps' folder(which is in your thumb drive) and click on refresh app icons if your startportableapps.exe is already started exe file and its compressed to 8.46MB, it works fine and it is good for people who like to play counter-strike and other steam games at work or at school, you just have to log in with your steam account to play!įile size: 8.64MB (RECOMMENDED FOR PEOPLE WHO HAVE 256MB+)įile version: I don't really know lol, but the last time I updated it was at 28th May 2008įunction: To play steam games at work or at school and chat to your steam friends! I made steam portable it is just like steam but it is an single.
