Getting and Installing Linux

This has got to hurt, right? I mean, most end-users do not know how to install Windows, let alone Linux!

This is where ``live-CDs'' come in handy. A live-CD is a CD that is bootable (assuming the BIOS of a computer is set up accordingly). There are many Linux live-CD distributions. In this presentation, I will use the mature Knoppix live-CD.

So, how hard is it to run Linux with a live-CD? Here's how:

• open the CD tray
• place the Linux live-CD in it
• reboot the computer
• that's it!

This is easier than installing Microsoft Office on your computer!
