How to run Ubuntu Linux through a live CD

This video will show you how to run a Linux Distribution (Ubuntu, in this case) through a live CD. There are three parts to this video, and in the 2nd I tell you about how to get a live CD. Here is the website:
www.ubuntu.com
There, you can go to the side bar on the left side and select get Ubuntu. From there, you can either select download Ubuntu (which I wouldn't recommend, unless you don't like waiting for anything) and put it on a CD/DVD to run, or you can do what I did and select request free CDs. Now, you have to sign up for an account, but thats only to track your shipping info. The downside to this method is that Linux will take 4-10 weeks to arrive. I would wait in getting Ubuntu for a couple days, just because a new version is coming out (8.04, codename Hardy Heron) and its just got some updates from version 7.1 (Gutsy Gibbon). Sorry about the screen, if it looks bad, don't have any idea how to solve that issue. Sorry about the breaks in between the videos and the long pauses during them, my camera has a set limit on the amount of video you can shoot. Subscribe, comment, and rate if you like my videos!

dude, you should use jingproject instead. It's much easier than a camera.

[UbuntuGuiden]

Yea I no. But, my computer sucked so much, I couldn't stand the lag I got in Jing. But, I got a new camera! Expect more videos in December, because my computer is all packed away for my house remodel. Sorry about the lack of content, everybody!

You should rename the name into: how to _not_ run a live cd ;]
