[talk-ph] Portable USB for OSM editing

[Ervin Malicdem]

got it working. Great work Maning.

However I thing the settings, plugins etc. for JOSM is left on the local
machine and not on the USB. So it is worth to note that if you downloaded a
plugin or set up a sat imagery on a local computer using the portable JOSM,
you would need to reset and download them up in case you would need to use
another computer.
