How to install a burn and install a open-source operating system on a
computer; in this post I'll be using Linux Mint operating system.
Which is one of th e best open-source operating systems out there;
that's really easy for beginners and more advanced users to use!
Also I'll explain how to set up your fresh install too.
- Download the ISO at Linux Mint Download also if you're fimler with using a bittorent like utorrent, you can also use that, but how to use a bittorent will be explained in later posts.
- Once the download is complete, use your favorite burning software like in more current Microsoft Windows products it comes with a way to burn ISO's to a DVD or CD. But for this case you'll need a blank DVD to do this; because the ISO for Linux Mint is a rather large file.
- Once the burn is successful (make sure yo verify that is correct in your burning software which usually the option to do that is clearly visible.) Put the blank CD or DVD back in the DVD/CD tray. An restart your computer in HP you press esc or in Dells you press F12 in doing that make sure you press the option to boot from the CD/DVD ROM
- The whole installation process of the operating system will walk you through it, but if you should make a mistake the good thing about open-source and this process is you don't have to worry about product keys or having so many times to reinstall it, because you can reinstall as many times as you like and on as many different computer's as you like. Because in the open-source community you're encouraged to share.
- Now once you've completed the installation process, in the lower right hand corner you should see a shield with a blue dot in the middle of it, that means you got updates to install, anytime you see a blue dot on the shield that means you've got updates to do. But if you see a shield with a check mark on it; that means you're up to date on it.
That pretty much sums up the whole installation process, if you have
