One File Linux: ~20MB live Linux distro, no installation needed. Copy one file to EFI partition to boot on any UEFI computer. Advantages include no USB required, direct UEFI boot, no boot manager, and compatibility with disk encryption. Useful for Linux on bare metal without USB. Run on Mac by copying to EFI and setting boot option; on PC, use efibootmgr to add NVRAM boot option. Can also run from formatted USB. Build your own version based on Alpine Linux.
