<li>Use this script file http://bit.ly/livecd-iso-to-disk to create a bootable image.<br>(Run {{Code|chmod +x livecd-iso-to-disk.sh}} after you download the script to make it executable.)</li>

Let's simplify the base instructions and leave this sort of information on a troubleshooting page.
:* <code>--format --reset-mbr</code> are optional arguments for the shell script, but may be excluded to preserve the existing disc format and data. See [[olpc:How to Damage a FLASH Storage Device]] for a discussion of why you might want to try to keep your factory format on a flash storage device.
:*: [[Talk:Downloads]] and [[LiveOS image]] have more information on this and other installation options.
:* If you do use the format and reset master boot record arguments, you'll want to specify the target device name and not a partition, that is {{Code|/dev/sd'''?'''}} with no partition number, instead of {{Code|/dev/sd'''?'''1}} as in the example above used to specify an existing partition. ''As noted above, confirm your target disc device name—in this case, it is VERY DANGEROUS to your other discs if this is entered wrong, as the whole disc will be reformatted and a new master boot record written causing all previously written data on that disc to be lost.'' -->
