I have 32GB memory card and I want to utilize it instead of an USB flash drive to boot and install ubuntu on my pc. Would you mind telling me how I can do it?

    Will your BIOS boot from a memory card?

Running Ubuntu from Memory Card

In Ubuntu you can install an ISO to Memory Card or to bootable USB using Startup Disk Creator, from the Live DVD or using mkusb: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/mkusb, MultiBootUSB also works well: http://multibootusb.org/.

In Windows you can install Ubuntu to Memory Card using Rufus: https://rufus.ie/, UNetbootin: https://unetbootin.github.io/, MultiBootUSB: http://multibootusb.org/ and Universal: https://www.pendrivelinux.com/universal-usb-installer-easy-as-1-2-3/ to name a few.

You can also Fully install Ubuntu to Memory Card or USB the same as to internal HDD: How to Create a Full Install of Ubuntu 20.04 to USB Device Step by Step. But a Full install is not much use when installing Ubuntu.

Most computers newer than eight years old will boot Ubuntu from Memory Card.
