I once had a 1-CD Linux distribution. I could boot from the CD and run the OS without installing it on the hard drive. It is very useful when you want to do some experiments in Linux but don't want to mess up with all the (Windows) stuff on the hard drive. I forgot the name of the distribution. Can anybody tell me? Thanks!
What is the Linux distribution that you can boot directly from CD and run without installation?
it's called Knoppix. go here: www.knoppix.org
There's also a distribution of Linspire (which has a similar interface to windows) which can be run live but it is not free like knoppix.
Reply:Such CDs are called Live CDs, and Knoppix is popular among Linux Live CDs. There are many other Linux Live CDs also.
