Mono Live

What's this?

The Mono Live LiveCD is a way for you to try out Linux, the Mono Framework 1.1.8.3, and the newest desktop applications without modifying your current computing environment.

What can I do?

This Live CD contains lots of exciting software. You can:

• Develop, compile and run software with MonoDevelop.
• Listen to your music collection in style with Muine or Banshee.
  
• Take notes with Tomboy.
• Manage your photos with F-Spot.
• Search music, photos, chats, and documents with Beagle.
• Explore web applications such as ASP.NET Forums, IBuySpy, and mojoPortal.

The i386 CD also contains the files necessary to install Mono on Windows computers. This allows you to expore the framework without installing a Linux desktop, and begin developing cross-platform applications with Mono and Gtk# today.

I want it now!

To get started, download the Mono Live LiveCD ISO disc image from one of the links below. Once you have obtained the ISO, burn it to a CD. Insert the CD, reboot your computer, ensure that in the BIOS the CD is used before your hard disk. You will be asked a few simple questions, and your desktop will soon be good to go.

Once the Live CD loads, you can find help getting started by opening the "Welcome" message in Tomboy located in the tray in upper-right hand corner of the screen.
