[meetashwin_16]

hello all
I want to install Linspire 5.0 on my HDD.
I have digit MAYdvd which includes the linspire 5.0 live cd.

But when i boot thru` it there is no option for installing.
I have tried thru` advanced option but after startx it doesn`t move further
from a white screen.It just stucks there.
Is it only live cd?
Can`t i install it on my Hard Disk?
PLzz give me a soln on this?
where could i get that Cd at cheper rate ?
I have gone thru` www.linsoftindia.com but they don`t have .they have 4.5 .

You can't install from Linspire's Live CD and as far as cheap CD is concerned...we don't talk piracy in here.

Its only a live CD and that too nothing great. Don't waste a CD on it :roll: If you want to install, install something like SuSE or Mandriva (Mandrake), Fedora Core, PCQ Linux, etc.

You can cheap CD-Rs at Lamington Road in Mumbai. Get one for even Rs. 6!!

You cant install it.Install a good one like Tuxfan said.Plus its no use installing even it is possible.Its really slow.

So guys u all suggesting me the distributions that I had already tried out
even with the latest versions (PCQ2004,2005,FC1,FC3,FC4,
MDK9.1,MDK10.1,Suse9.0,9.2 & other live cds ) to Tuxfan
The answer to my query is Digit had provided the wrong one which is just for booting without installation.
To vignesh if it`s possible then plzz explain the procedure.
& when I asked for cheap cds?
I asked for Linspire cd at reasonable rate.
The one who is offering me cheap cds at 6 Rs.
Guys i think u all r confused.
Plzz read carefully before u post reply .

Ya, its nothing so great in linspire. try FC4, Mandrake 10, Suse 9.3, or ubuntu. Or you can wait for Suse 10.

It has been specified in the mag and DVD that this distro is a Live CD.

I guess, it would be better if you post your queries clearly :roll: If almost everyone gets confused then something is wrong with your post and not with their understanding :roll:

And I guess, you have no right to be mean here. People here are trying to help you. Don't greet them back with these kind of smileys.

<-- These ones would be better!!
