This CD is based on our CentOS-5.0 i386 distribution.
It can be used as a Workstation, with the following software:

================================================================
The CentOS 5 i386 Live CD is based on the ADIOS Live CD Project:

================================================================
This CD has a non writable /usr directory, which means it is not able to have software installed on it after boot up. The CentOS team is working hard to create a Live CD for CentOS 5 that is based on the Fedora Live CD Project (that is writable in all directories and even able to be used for installs) ... unfortunately we were not able to get this working with CentOS 5 for this release. We hope to get that Live CD working by the release of CentOS 5.1.
That means that the purposes of this CD are to see if CentOS will boot/work on your hardware, to test some of the features of CentOS as a workstation, and to use as a Rescue CD. It does not contain all the features of the 7 CD CentOS 5 Distribution on one CD :)
================================================================
The CentOS Project would like to thank Patrice Guay ( http://www.nanotechnologies.qc.ca ) for the creation of this CD. Patrice did the Tao Linux live CDs in the past and graciously donated his time and effort to make this one too.
