<p><b>CD burning</b>
|
|
<br>The livecd system is distributed as a standard ISO 9660 image file.
|
|
So you have to burn it as an ISO image file, the option is available in most CD
|
|
burning programs.
|
|
openmamba livecd fits in a 700 MB (80 minutes) CD-R o CD-RW empty support.
|
|
<br><br>
|
|
<p><b>livecd startup</b>
|
|
<br>Insert the CD in the player and restart the computer. On most computers the system
|
|
should start up automatically but sometimes you have to tell the BIOS to boot from CD.
|
|
Please see your computer guide or read the startup messages on video for more
|
|
information on how to boot from CD.
|
|
<p>After a 1-3 minutes wait for system startup (times depend on computer hardware features)
|
|
openmamba graphical interface will be available and ready to use in a KDE environment
|
|
with superuser (root) user permissions.
