How to run as live-cd?

Postby martinr » Apr 21st, '11, 01:26

Hi folks!
Foolish, but true:
How can I run the mageia-iso-CD as a live-system?
As far as I remember from yesterday night, while booting the iso-image from CD, I get the options:

Failsafe booting
Boot from HD
Install
Mem-Check
Disc-Check

but I didn't find any option to start the iso as live-CD, it wanted to be installed just right now on HD, what I don't want so far.

Should be an iso maybe 10 days ago, maybe RC1
to confirm this later

You can't run it as live cd because it is no live cd.
Developpers are working on live cds, we will have some for sure.

As I said, it's work in progress. There were some unexpected issues but FWIK they are fixed by now.
Can't give an exact date though. Pls have patience, you will not regret it :)
