The Ubuntu Live CD only runs from the CD so far as I know. You cannot
install it to your hard disk.

IIRC, you type INSTALL or something, there are instructions on the
screen) at the boot prompt to take it through the install to hard disk
process. You need to download the gnoppix image from www.gnoppix.org,
writ the image to CD and then boot from the CD.

I've not tried installing it so maybe some others can add their
experience here?

Tony.
