The Live CD, what it is and how to do it

Posted by Simon North on April 13, 2008

Converting to Linux is not a decision that many take lightly, that is why the Live CD has been such a good invention. The Live CD allows you to run the operating system in your system memory from CD without touching you hard drive which means that you can test the operating system without being scared of whether or not your data or computer is going to be damaged or lost.

The Live CD can be ordered from stores such as http://www.thelinuxstore.org.uk, pre packed on Linux magazines or downloaded and burnt to CD, you can even get them for free, for example Ubuntu will send you a professionally made copy of their software on CD from https://shipit.ubuntu.com/.

To create a live CD yourself from an ISO you can follow one of the tutorials below or ask a question in our forums:

Burn Using Nero

Burn using IMGBURN

Burn using InfraRecorder: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto
