Hello,
The Phoenix Live CD has been upgraded to include more educational
packages and a GUI Installer program. The total size after installation
is now around 1.7 GB
The GUI based installer makes the computer multiboot. On an AMD Athlon
XP machine with SATA disk it took just 3 minutes to complete the
installation process.
The ISO image
<http://www.iuac.res.in/%7Eelab/livecd_images/index.html>is available on
the web site. I am looking for feedback. Those who are willing to go
though the contents and try out the installation to hard disk may ask
for a CD by post. (well. you must have a PC with all the data backed up
somewhere)
with regards
ajith
