Klikit-Linux "first flight" (the seagull series) version 0.1-6F (alpha) Instructions |
|
|
First, it is is very important that you understand that the current release of Klikit-Linux is still in ALPHA STAGE, which means that it is not stable, it may be very buggy, it is only for testing purposes, and should NOT be used in ANY system with important data. The team behind the development of Klikit-Linux will not be responsible in any way. Once you download the .iso you will have to use a burning program such as k3b, Brasero or Nero. If you are using MS WIndows, some of our users have reported that imgburn does an excellent job. Do NOT burn the .iso as data, you have to burn it as a CD/DVD image (.iso).
