Using Linux Mint off DVD-Flash, Java updates?

Is it possible to use Linux Mint off disc, or pen drive, and update Java and Flash, as lots of websites will not play with whatever is installed now...??(Linux Mint 16)- Getting 17 on drive and DVD.

 

Update Java and flash for what version of Windows?
If you mean in Mint then this

Flash is updated from Adobe for a particular browser
These are the current versions

Windows XP pro. But Its not for Windows. What I mean is:When you run Linux Mint, or any linux off a pen drive, or a CD/DVD, they will not play Adobe Flash, and sometimes you can't download stuff because Java doesn't work either, outdated etc. So you have to upgrade it. I only have a Mint DVD, so not sure now how to update Java and Adobe while running off the DVD??

Like, if you have Java, adobe in a pen drive, can you run it from there? Or is a pen drive the way to go, so you can update the programs?

 

You can't update anything running from a DVD. It has been written to and what you have is final.

On the other hand, if you make a Live Mint USB stick with persistence the stick can be written to and you can update Mint.

You make a stick using any one of these three programs:

http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/

I have used all three to make sticks.

 

Ok, cool, thats the way I want to go, thanks!!
