Question Answered By: Adah Miller   on Dec 27

It can be run only from the live CD. It cannot be installed. You boot from the
live CD and there are some options. I cannot remember them exactly. There is the
option of running from CD, there is an option of copying the operating system to
RAM (you can do it if you have enough RAM , as Slax is of 190 MB approximately.
There is also an option I cannot understand what kind of graphics but thei icons
were big on the desktop and there is also an option for the text mode, which I
cannot use, of course.
Slax is a wonderful rescue tool for copying files from one partition to
another or for copying them to CD or DVD. I just scavenged for files from my
Windows, Ubuntu and Mandriva partitions and burned them to DVD with K3B.
But Ubuntu run from the live CD is also a very good rescue tool if the
computer is powerful enough.
I tried to install that version for the stick on my memory stick (Jetflash)
but it seems that I failed. There is the option of booting from the flash drive,
but then..."Disk error, press any key to restart". When I press a key the same
message appears. I had to reboot my PC to get rid of this.
