  • This tutorial is set up for a 4 GB USB stick or VirtualBox 4 GB hard disk install.
  • You can also install to a regular hard disk. See Type of installation below.
  • Burn and Boot the CD, or load the .iso as described here, and boot the Live USB.

The Name and colors screens set the individual SSH ID for the user and only run once.
(Enter Name you want to use.)

Click on the avitar to change colors - repeat to change again.
Click (done) when you are happy with it.
