For the sake of simplicity let’s assume that you will use the computer’s entire hard disk for PCLinuxOS. Before you can boot your computer using the created PCLinuxOS disk, you have to make sure that your PC’s CD-ROM drive is set as the first boot device. Usually this can be done by changing settings in BIOS, and the exact steps depend on your computer model and BIOS version. Once this is done, you are ready to boot PCLinuxOS. Start your computer and insert the PCLinuxOS in the CD drive. During the boot, you will be asked to log in either as guest or root. Log in as root using root as both user name and password. When the system is finished booting, double-click on the Livecd-Installer shortcut on the Desktop to launch the Livecd-Installer tool.

Although this is "distro-centric" in nature, PCLinuxOS is developing a hard following and merits a space here. This is fine work and undoubtably should be part of the pclos wiki...but I believe it already is. Having written much of that wiki, I am intimate with the other authors and contributors. This is the center piece for that work. Thank you for this contribution.
