UNetbootin

UNetbootin is a utility for creating live bootable USB drives. The name of the software is short for Universal Netboot Installer, and its most prevalent use has been to create bootable versions of Linux distributions on a USB drive.

With an otherwise empty usb thumb drive, I created the analogue of a bootable DVD with unetbootin. After a check if the bios allows to boot from the usb port, boot from this usb. The performance will be a bit less than an installation on the hard disk (transfer from the thumb drive, etc); but because all you see then lives on the working memory of the computer, you can work without a change to your current installation - simply log-off, reboot (the thumb drive retracted), and you are back to your initial state. And if you don't like Linux Mint, distrowatch likely has a Linux you might give a try then. Just let unetbootin know which .iso to process now.
