The school here wants to teach basic Linux and Unix things like terminal and CLI.
The problem is, installing things is not allowed. So, dual boot is out of the question. Just running windows 8.
Next, the systems aren't powerful enough for any VM. Running ancient systems on 4GB RAM. Currently, the school is using Cygwin. But we can't properly use commands like chmod and the like.
I am thinking of
- Using git bash terminal. Don't know if permission commands will work properly on Windows 8 or not.
- Using live ubuntu on USB. The system will be read-only, so
mkdirandchmodis out. Or is there a way to do this? Please suggest. - Using Slackware or Puppy OS.
As a student what can I suggest to the teachers?
Option 3 seems the most viable choice. Any suggestion is welcome.
Thank you

One option would be to run Ubuntu Live from a USB stick with persistent storage, meaning you partition your USB stick for Ubuntu to use as storage and save your settings. The following link explains how to do this:
https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.howtogeek.com/howto/14912/create-a-persistent-bootable-ubuntu-usb-flash-drive/amp/
The commands you have mentioned (mkdir and chmod) should work on Ubuntu live, however without the persistent storage it will be wiped along with any other changes and configurations made when you reboot
Another option available is to instead of using Ubuntu Live, install Ubuntu on to the USB disk. The following link explains how to do that:
