From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Adding a netboot.xyz EFI boot menu entry can be useful if you do not need a live system often and do not have a USB stick when you do.
But don't you need a wired network connection for this to actually work?
I have only tried it with wired but it uses ipxe and that is supposed to work with Android USB tethering too to bridge to other kinds of network access.
