<p>Dear All,</p>
<p>If you are interested in a Ubuntu-9.10 based Livecd, pre-configured with<br>
1) DSpace,<br>
2) PKP Harvester (OAI harvester based search engine for digital repositories)<br>
3) Koha, and<br>
4) dbWiz (a federated search engine for online Journals/databases)</p>
<p>You may download from<br>
<a href="http://sf.net/projects/liblivecd" title="http://sf.net/projects/liblivecd">http://sf.net/projects/liblivecd</a> OR<br>
<a href="http://liblivecd/sf.net" title="http://liblivecd/sf.net">http://liblivecd/sf.net</a></p>
<p>NOTE: Though <a href="http://sourceforge.net">sourceforge.net</a> shows the size of the file as 712 MB, the<br>
actual size is 680 MB. After downloading the ISO file, you may cut a CD<br>
(700 MB capacity) as ISO file. DONOT copy the ISO file on to the CD!!!</p>
<p>For people who never used a liveCD:<br>
Once you have the CD, you may boot your system with the CD. LiveCD will<br>
not write anything to your Hard Disk. You can work from the CD itself and<br>
try testing DSpace, PKP harvester, Koha, and dbWiz. If you wish to have<br>
the Ubuntu Operating system along with these Library related software, you<br>
may click the "Install Ubuntu-9.10" icon. Take more care while<br>
partitioning your hard disk. You may use even multi-boot with the<br>
existing operating systems on your system.</p>
