- When the DVD boots, choose "Try Trisquel without installing" and you're on your way! This Live DVD won't harm your computer or touch the files on your hard drive(s).
- When you reboot, whatever work you've done in Trisquel will be lost. But, you can install it to your computer at any time from the Live DVD and then you won't need to boot from it.
