<a name="l2"></a>
|
|
<a name="l3"></a>Burn a CD with software that supports ISO files. Then, boot it. It's a live CD, so you can look around with or without
|
|
<a name="l4"></a>installing.
|
|
<a name="l5"></a>
|
|
<a name="l6"></a>Dual booting with another operating system is the best way to use ZealOS. It is often used in a virtual machine because it
|
|
<a name="l7"></a>won't boot natively on some machines, though. For native dual booting, you need a partition for ZealOS. Windows often
|
|
<a name="l8"></a>comes with a restore disk that does not allow repartitioning. It's recommended to connect a spare additional hard drive and
|
|
<a name="l9"></a>use the </span><span class=cF2>BIOS</span><span class=cF0> to select which drive to boot.
|
|
<a name="l10"></a>
|
|
<a name="l11"></a>The </span><a href="https://tomawezome.github.io/ZealOS/Misc/OSInstall.CC.html#l1"><span class=cF4>::/Misc/OSInstall.CC</span></a><span class=cF0> script will automate much of this. It runs if you boot the CD/DVD-ROM.

<a name="l13"></a>See </span><a href="https://tomawezome.github.io/ZealOS/Doc/Boot.DD.html#l1"><span class=cF4>Boot.DD</span></a><span class=cF0> for an overview of booting. See </span><a href="https://tomawezome.github.io/ZealOS/Doc/Requirements.DD.html#l1"><span class=cF4>Requirements</span></a><span class=cF0> for supported hardware.
|

<a name="l14"></a>
|
|
<a name="l15"></a>Two ZealOS partitions are highly recommended, so you can boot to a back-up and fix the primary when you work on it. Odds are,
|
|
<a name="l16"></a>you only need a couple gigabytes for your ZealOS partitions.

<a name="l21"></a> The first partition will be </span><span class=cF2>'C'</span><span class=cF0>, second, </span><span class=cF2>'D'</span><span class=cF0>, etc. ZealOS needs only 1 number to utilize a hard drive -- port.
