- <title>Live Image README</title>
- <section id="introduction">
- <title>Introduction</title>
- <para>A Live image is a low-risk and time-efficient method of
- "test-driving" the Fedora operating system on your own familiar
- hardware. If the evaluation provides a pleasant adventure, you may
- choose to install the Live system software to provide your normal
- computing environment. This Live image provides you with an
- experience that is very similar to running Fedora, but there are
- some benefits and caveats. Refer to <xref linkend="benefits"/>
- and <xref linkend="caveats"/> for more information.</para>
- </section>
- <section id="howto">
- <title>What Should I Do With My Live Image?</title>
- <para>Before you use your Live image, read the next section to learn
- how to maximize your enjoyment of Fedora. You may also want to
- read
- <xref linkend="booting"/> for hints on booting from this media.
- Then insert this media in your computer and boot from it.</para>
- </section>
- <section id="suggested_hardware">
- <title>Suggested Hardware</title>
- <para>This Live system successfully boots and runs on most computers
- with 256 MB or more installed system memory, or RAM. If your
- computer has 1 GB or more installed system memory, for higher
- performance, select <guilabel>Run from RAM</guilabel> from the
- boot menu.</para>
- <para>Your computer must have the ability to boot from the device
- holding the Live image media. For instance, if the Live image is
- on a CD or DVD, your computer must be able to boot from the CD or
- DVD drive.</para>
- </section>
- <section id="booting">
- <title>Booting</title>
- <para>This section gives additional guidance for users whose
- experience with starting the computer, or "booting," is limited to
- pushing the power button. To set up your system to boot from the
- Live media, first shut down or hibernate your computer if it is
- not already off. Power your computer on, and watch the initial
- BIOS screen for a prompt that indicates which key to use for
- either:</para>
- <itemizedlist>
- <listitem>
- <para>a boot menu, or</para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>the BIOS setup utility</para>
- </listitem>
- </itemizedlist>
- <para>The boot menu option is preferable. If you cannot see such a
- prompt, consult your manufacturer's documentation for your
- computer system, motherboard, or mainboard for the correct
- keystroke. On many systems, the required key will be
- <keycap>F12</keycap>, <keycap>F2</keycap>, <keycap>F1</keycap>, or
- <keycap>Delete</keycap>.</para>
- <para> Most computers boot from hard disk (or one of the hard disks, if
- there are more than one). If you are reading this document from a
- CD or a DVD, then set the computer to boot from the DVD or CD
- drive. If you are reading this file from a USB device such as a
- memory stick or thumb drive, set your computer to boot from the
- USB device.</para>
- <para>If you are making changes to the BIOS configuration, record
- the current boot device selection configuration before you change
- it. This record allows you to restore the original configuration
- if you choose to return to your previous computing
- environment.</para>
- <para>The BIOS on older computers may not include a choice you
- desire, such as network booting. If your computer can only boot
- from floppy diskette or hard disk, you may be unable to experience
- this Live image on your computer.</para>
- <para>You may wish to see if an updated BIOS is available from the
- manufacturer of your computer. A BIOS update may offer additional
- boot menu choices, but requires care to install properly. Consult
- the manufacturer's documentation for more information. Otherwise,
- ask a friend if you can try running this Live image on their newer
- computer.</para>
- </section>
- <section id="benefits">
- <title>Benefits</title>
- <para>The following benefits accrue with a Live image:</para>
- <itemizedlist>
- <listitem>
- <para>While running this Live image, you are in control, and are
- not limited to a set of screenshots or options chosen by
- others. Select which tasks or applications to explore with
- complete freedom.</para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>You can experiment with this Live image with no disruption to
- your previous computing environment, documents, or desktop.
- Hibernate your current operating system, restart with the Live
- image, and restart the original operating system when finished.
- Your previous environment returns with no changes made.</para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>You can use the Live image to evaluate whether all of your
- hardware devices are recognized and properly configured.</para>
- <important>
- <title>Full Hardware Recognition</title>
- <para>In some cases, the Live image does not offer the full
- range of hardware support seeing in an installed Fedora
- system. You may be able to manually configure support in the
- Live image, but must repeat these steps each time you use
- the Live image.</para>
- </important>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>You can use the Live image to try different desktop environments
- such as GNOME, KDE, XFCE, or others. None of these choices
- require you to reconfigure an existing Linux installation on
- your computer.</para>
- </listitem>
- </itemizedlist>
- </section>
- <section id="caveats">
- <title>Caveats</title>
- <para>The Live image also involves some drawbacks in exchange for
- convenience:</para>
- <itemizedlist>
- <listitem>
- <para>While using this Live image, your computer may be much
- slower to respond or require more time to complete tasks than
- with a system installed to hard disk. CD and DVD discs provide
- data to the computer at a much slower rate than hard disks.
- Less of your computer's system memory is available for loading
- and running applications. Running the Live image from RAM
- trades higher memory usage for faster response times.</para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>To fit space constraints, fewer installed applications are
- included than in a full installation of Fedora. Your favorite
- applications may not be present in this Live image, even
- though they may be present and run quite well in a full
- installation of Fedora.</para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>At this time, you cannot permanently install new
- applications in the Live image. To try other applications, or
- newer versions of existing applications, you must generally
- install Fedora on your computer. You may be able to
- temporarily install or update applications, however, if you
- have sufficient system memory. Most systems require more than
- 512 MB RAM for installations or updates to succeed. These
- changes will be lost when you shut down the Live image.</para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>Changes may also evaporate if your system's memory usage
- forces the system to reread the original software or settings
- from the Live image. This behavior is peculiar to a Live image
- and does not occur in a full installation of Fedora.</para>
- </listitem>
- </itemizedlist>
- </section>
- <section id="experimenting">
- <title>Experimenting with the Live image</title>
- <para>As you explore the the cascading menus on or around the
- desktop, look for application programs you may wish to run. In
- addition, you may wish to explore other capabilities.</para>
- <section id="sharing_existing_data">
- <title>Sharing Existing Data</title>
- <para>You can share data via mounting existing storage devices,
- such as:</para>
- <itemizedlist>
- <listitem>
- <para>floppy diskettes</para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>USB drives</para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>disk partitions</para>
- </listitem>
- </itemizedlist>
- </section>
- <section id="making_backups">
- <title>Making a Backup Copy of Data</title>
- <para>You may use this Live image to make backup or archival
- copies of data, if your computer system includes:</para>
- <itemizedlist>
- <listitem>
- <para>a CD or DVD burning drive</para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>a hard disk with ample free space</para>
- </listitem>
- </itemizedlist>
- <para>Files normally in use by your previous operating system when
- it is running are not in use in the Live image. Therefore you
- can use the Live image to copy files that are problematic for
- backup software in the previous operating system.</para>
- </section>
- </section>
- <section id="install_this_live_image">
- <title>Installing Fedora from the Live Image</title>
- <para>To install the system from this Live image, run the LiveOS as
- described above, and select the <emphasis>Install to Hard
- Disk</emphasis> application on the Desktop. Using the resulting
- Fedora installation, you can customize the software and
- configuration to your liking on a persistent basis.</para>
