I am working on windows 10 currently. I was wondering if MX Linux could be installed directly from online. Thanks for taking the time to reply.

Do you want to run specific apps, or see what the desktop UI looks like?

I want MX Linux as the heart of all my work.

I'd just download an iso, carefully dd it to a small USB pendrive, boot into it, run the installer, installing to the main drive (or another larger usb). I wonder... many ways one could accomplish this with help of a virtual machine intermediary stage.
