if I use Gparted can I create two partitions on my 4gb pendrive?

and then can I make each of these two partitions becoming one an installer* for Ubuntu and the other one the installer for puppy Linux? (or any other distribution?)

*installer= I don't remember the exact word for this.

  • Using 2 different partitions is the wrong direction. Use GRUB and loop mount the iso images: http://askubuntu.com/a/550979/40581 – LiveWireBT Nov 18 '14 at 11:25

Yes you can, but only one of the partitions can be set as a boot partition at a time. (on most BIOSes)

Meaning: if you want to have 2 bootable partitions on one USB stick, you will have to use gparted each time you want to "switch" between the one and the other.

Depending on what you want/need, you could have a look at Easy2Boot
