Step 1: Download the Live Image
The live image is available from the
test drive page. Save the image to a known location so you can access it in step 2.
Step 2: Byte-copy the image to a USB drive or burn to CD
Write image to a USB drive
You will need a USB drive with at least the capacity of the downloaded image.
Note: A byte-exact copy of the ISO image must be placed on the USB drive. It is not sufficient to simply copy the image file to the drive.
Note: The contents of the USB drive will be completely erased.
Linux | Be sure the USB drive is unmounted before proceeding. Some Linux distributions auto mount the USB drive when it is inserted, which can cause corruption when writing.
# umount
Use either of these two methods:
- Image Writer (recommended, requires Python >=2.4)
Image Writer is a small python executable script that detects your USB drive and writes the image to it. The advantage of using image writer is that it will not inadvertently overwrite your system hard drive. Download Image Writer (Right-click, Save Link As...)
# cd # chmod a+x ./image-writer # ./image-writer
- Use 'dd' from the command-line
Caution: 'dd' will overwrite any destination including your system hard disk. Make sure you know the correct value of before proceeding.
# dd bs=4096 if= of=

Windows | There is a simple way to put the Moblin image on a USB drive.
- Download the Win32DiskImager.exe program: https://launchpad.net/win32-image-writer/+download (zip file)
- Unzip the file and extract the contents to a known directory
- Run W32DiskImager.exe (screenshot)
- Select the Moblin image file (.img)
- Select the drive letter which corresponds to the USB key
- Click the "Write" button to byte-copy the image to the USB drive.

Mac OS X | Be sure the USB drive is unmounted before proceeding. OS X auto mounts the USB drive when it is inserted, which can cause corruption when writing. You can press the eject icon in Finder or drag the USB icon to the trash.
Use this method (thanks to Many Ayromlou for the instructions):
- Open a Terminal (Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal)
- Run
diskutil list
to get the current list of devices
- Insert your flash media
- Run
diskutil list
again and determine the device node assigned to your flash media (e.g. /dev/disk2)
- Run
diskutil unmountDisk /dev/diskN
(replace N with the disk number from the last command; in the previous example, N would be 2)
- Run
sudo dd if=/path/to/downloaded.img of=/dev/diskN bs=1024
(replace /path/to/downloaded.img with the place you downloaded the image. You'll need your password for this.
- Run
diskutil eject /dev/diskN
(where N is the number we found above) and remove your flash media when the command completes
- You're done! Plug that USB into a netbook and enjoy Moblin

Burn image to CD
Before proceeding, make sure your target device has a CD player. Many netbooks do not. You can also use an external CD player that plugs into a USB port.
Note: A byte-exact copy of the ISO image must be placed on the CD. It is not sufficient to simply copy the image file to the CD.
Linux | cdrecord
- Insert a blank CD into the CD burner.
- Find the device file associated with your burner (/dev/... ).
$ cdrecord --devices Sample output: ------------------------------------------------------- 0 dev='/dev/scd0' rwrw-- : '_NEC' 'DVD+RW ND=1100A' -------------------------------------------------------
- Burn the image to the CD.
$ cdrecord -dev= -tao Example: $ cdrecord -dev='/dev/scd0' -tao

Windows | Most Windows CD-writing tools have the ability to burn an iso image. Here is one option.
iso recorder
- Download isorecorder. Install the program.
- Follow this tutorial.

Step 3: Boot the image on your netbook, MID, or PC
Insert the USB drive into your netbook and reboot. Make sure that the netbook boot order tries the USB drive first.
