1 <p>You can start with one of the 2 following flavors:</p>
2
3 <ul>
4 <li><b>base</b> needs 28MB of RAM and 4 floppies: <tt>fd001.img</tt> to
5 <tt>fd004.img</tt>.<br>
6 base provides the minimum SliTaz distribution subset in text mode.</li>
7 <li><b>core</b> needs 128MB of RAM and 18 floppies: <tt>fd001.img</tt> to
8 <tt>fd113.img</tt>.<br>
9 core provides the default SliTaz distribution.</li>
10 </ul>
11
12 <p>Start your computer with <tt>fd001.img</tt>. It will show the Kernel version
13 string and the Kernel cmdline line. You can edit the cmdline. Most users can
14 just press Enter.</p>
15
16 <p>The floppy is then loaded into memory (one dot each 64KB) and you will be
17 prompted to insert the next floppy, <tt>fd002.img</tt>. And so on up to
18 <tt>fd004.img</tt>.</p>
19
20 <p>The base flavor will then start and you will be prompted to insert extra
21 floppies for the core flavor. You can bypass this by using Q and Enter.</p>
22
23 <p>If you have an ext3 partition on your hard disk, the bootstrap can create the
24 installation script <code>slitaz/install.sh</code>. You will be able to install
25 SliTaz on your hard disk without extra media.</p>
