If the Fedora 16 Linux OS is currently installed on the PC, boot as a root-privileged
user and skip to step 4.
To boot from the Fedora 16 LiveDVD provided in the kit, place the DVD in the PC
DVD-ROM drive. The Fedora 16 Live Media is for Intel-compatible PCs. The DVD
contains a complete, bootable 32-bit Fedora 16 environment with the proper packages
installed for the TRD demonstration environment. The PC boots from the DVD-ROM
drive and logs into a liveuser account. This account has kernel development root
privileges required to install and remove device driver modules.
Note:
It might be necessary to adjust the PC BIOS boot order settings to ensure that the
DVD-ROM drive is the first drive in the boot order. Refer to the PC user manual for the proper
procedure to set the BIOS boot order.
