2. Requirements
To create a Fedora live CD, you need:
- a broadband connection to the Internet.
- a computer with a CD or DVD burner.
- software that allows you to create a CD from an image file.
- a blank, writeable CD.
If you do not have a fast Internet connection, or if you have a problem creating boot media, downloading may not be an option. Fedora DVD and CD distribution media is available from a number of online sources around the world at a minimal cost. Use your favorite Web search engine to locate a vendor, or refer to http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Distribution.
The computer on which you intend to install Fedora 12 from the live CD should have: These specifications represent a bare minumum to use Fedora in graphical mode. Almost any laptop or desktop computer manufactured during the past ten years will meet these requirements. For more details of the hardware requirements for Fedora 12, refer to the Fedora 12 Release Notes, available from http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes/f12/.
- a CD or DVD drive, and the capability to boot from this drive.
- a 400 MHz processor or faster
- at least 256 MB of memory (RAM)
- at least 10 GB of permanent storage (hard drive) space.
If your computer does not have a CD or DVD drive, or is not capable of booting from this drive, then you might be able to install Fedora from a USB storage device such as a USB flash drive. Refer to the liveusb-creator page at https://fedorahosted.org/liveusb-creator/ for instructions.
Do you already have Fedora 12 on CD, DVD, or live USB media?
If you already have Fedora 12 on CD, DVD, or live USB media, you can still use this guide, because many steps will be similar. Skip ahead to Section 5, “Boot your computer from the CD”, then
- continue through the instructions in order if you have a Fedora 12 live CD or live USB device.
- skip ahead to Section 7, “Welcome to Fedora” if you have a Fedora 12 DVD or set of six CDs.
