How to install a Linux distribution on a flash drive?

From under Windows installed using the Universal USB Installer on a 16GB USB 3.0 Debian Live CD. And I ran into the following problems:
-actions are not saved, that is, when you reboot, everything seems to be from scratch
-only about a giga of memory is available, although the flash drive is 16
How to properly install a Linux distribution on a USB flash drive, in particular Debian?
Also wondering if it is possible to install multiple operating systems at once, such as Linux Mint and Debian? If so, how?

You start from another flash drive and install it on the one you need. She will not put herself on. This is if you need it fast.

Let's
go step by step 1. Download the distribution from off-site.
2. Install the LinuxLive USB Creator program and make a bootable flash drive.
3. We go into bios (in boot) set USB as a priority.
4. Cut down UEFI.
5. Reboot.
P$ Since you have USB 3.0 - insert the flash drive into the blue port.

o.Debian is the basis of a number of Knoppix, Linux Mint, Maemo, MEPIS, SteamOS, TAILS, Ubuntu distributions.
Yes, you can have several operating systems, but you have to share the disk.

Just exactly like on HDD/SDD. For Linux it doesn't matter.

use YUMI to create a multi-boot flash drive with a selection of the required Linux distributions, etc.
