How to Burn A Live Linux CD

I have recently received a batch of emails asking the same question: "I've downloaded the Linux .ISO file, now what do I do?".  So in response to this question, I have made a video stepping through the process of using ImgBurn to make a ready-to-go Live Linux CD with your Operating System of choice.  And then testing it to make sure it boots up.

There are numerous burning programs out there that can accomplish what we are trying to do in this video.  However, I have personally been using ImgBurn since I first started playing around with Linux.  For me, it gets the job done quickly and without other excess crap or bloat.


Just make sure you're speakers are turned down when the 'Job Complete' sound plays.  It'll scare the crap out of you. lol

To follow along with this video you will need 2 things: ImgBurn and a Linux .ISO file.
For ImgBurn: http://www.imgburn.com
For an ISO File: http://www.distrowatch.com

If you visit Distrowatch for your ISO file, be sure to pick the distribution you like best, and on that distribution's page find the links to the ISO file.  In most cases there will be two files, one is a 32bit version and the other will be a 64bit version.  Be sure to pick the appropriate version for your computer.

Once you have ImgBurn installed and have downloaded an ISO file to work with, have fun!
