FAQ:I've downloaded the ISO image, now what do I do with it?

An ISO file is a CD image, so most standard CD writing software will support creating an Ark Linux installation CD from the ISO files. Here are some instructions for the most common CD writing software:

K3B (Linux/Unix)

Go to the "Tools" menu, select "Burn CD Image", select the arklinux.iso file in the "Image to Burn" entry, click start.

CD Bake Oven (Linux/Unix)

In the opening screen, click "Burn a new CD from an image file". Select arklinux.iso and then click the "Create!" button.

dvdrecord (Linux/Unix command line)

Type dvdrecord dev=/dev/hdc arklinux.iso and press enter. Replace /dev/hdc with the device node of your CD/DVD writer.

cdrecord (Linux/Unix command line)

Run cdrecord -scanbus to find out the ID cdrecord assigns to your CD/DVD writer. Then use cdrecord dev=0,0,0 arklinux.iso (replacing 0,0,0 with the ID you found out by running cdrecord -scanbus).

Nero Burning ROM (Windows)

Open Nero and close the wizard. Go to "File" and then to "Burn Image..". In the next dialog, click on "Image files (*.nrg)" and select "All Files (*.*)". Choose arklinux.iso and click "Accept". Make sure the next dialog says Type: Data Mode 1, Block size: 2048, Image header: 0 and Image trailer: 0. In the next dialog, make sure the "write" and "finalize" options are active, then click on "Write".

The deluxe version 7 for windows is different. You close the wizard window and then you click on file ยป open and then the filename and the program recognizes it and eliminates all the wrong choices so all you have to click on is "burn".

Easy CD Creator (Windows)

Go to the "File" menu and click on "Create CD from disc image". Make sure to change the bottom drop-down menu ("Files of type:") to say "ISO image files". The browse to the arklinux.iso file and select it.

WinOnCD (windows)

Click on the 'New' button and select a "track-image" project. While you are in track mode (not file system mode), drag the arklinux.iso file onto the CD window, and it should be accepted as a raw track. WinOnCD uses .RAW as its own extension - if it won't write arklinux.iso, try renaming the file to arklinux.raw first (this is necessary with some, but not all, versions of WinOnCD).

Now you have an Ark Linux installation CD - put it in your CD drive, and reboot the computer. (If it doesn't boot into the Ark Linux installer, you may have to tell the computer to boot from CD in the BIOS Setup first)
