IOSN Live CD

Page Tools
This CD is for those interested in running the GNU/Linux operating system and free/open source software (FOSS) applications on their computer. It is a bootable CD that runs the GNU/Linux operation system off temporary memory and does not affect the hard drive.

 

The IOSN Live CD serves as a self-learning guide to using the GNU/Linux operating system and FOSS applications. 5,000 copies of the IOSN Live CD have been produced for wide distribution.

In addition to standard FOSS productivity and multimedia applications, it is bundled with a user guide that includes training materials on using the GNU/Linux operating system and FOSS applications, presentation slides for trainers to be used in conjunction with the training materials, and an interactive guide. The CD also contains three International Open Source Network (IOSN) e-Primers on FOSS.

The entire CD can be downloaded here.

 

The training materials and publications in the CD can also be downloaded separately from the IOSN website.
