Hey there!
No worries, there are several lightweight Linux distributions that can fit on an 8GB USB key. I recommend checking out Puppy Linux or Bodhi Linux. They are both small, fast, and great for creating a live USB key. Give them a try!
Cheers! Love ya too!

Yes, Kubuntu is a larger Linux distribution and may not fit on an 8GB USB key. However, you can still try other lightweight distributions like Puppy Linux, Bodhi Linux, or Lubuntu, which are designed to be smaller in size and require less storage space.

To create a live USB key, you can use a tool like Rufus (for Windows), balenaEtcher (for Windows, macOS, and Linux), or UNetbootin (for Windows and Linux). These tools provide an easy way to write the Linux ISO image onto the USB key and make it bootable. Simply download the tool of your choice, select the ISO image of the Linux distribution you want to install, and follow the instructions to create your live USB key.
