1 <p>You can start with one of the 4 following flavors:</p>
2
3 <ul>
4 <li><b>base</b> needs 48MB of RAM and 6 floppies: <tt>fd001.img</tt> to
5 <tt>fd006.img</tt>.<br>
6 base provides the minimum SliTaz distribution subset in text mode.</li>
7 <li><b>justx</b> needs 96MB of RAM and 12 floppies: <tt>fd001.img</tt> to
8 <tt>fd105.img</tt>.<br>
9 justx provides the minimum SliTaz distribution subset with X11
10 support.</li>
11 <li><b>gtkonly</b> needs 128MB of RAM and 17 floppies: <tt>fd001.img</tt> to
12 <tt>fd204.img</tt>.<br>
13 gtkonly provides the minimum SliTaz distribution subset with GTK+
14 support.</li>
15 <li><b>core</b> needs 192MB of RAM and 25 floppies: <tt>fd001.img</tt> to
16 <tt>fd307.img</tt>.<br>
17 core provides the default SliTaz distribution.</li>
18 </ul>
19
20 <p>Start your computer with <tt>fd001.img</tt>. It will show the kernel version
21 string and the kernel cmdline line. You can edit the cmdline. Most users can
22 just press Enter.</p>
23
24 <p>The floppy is then loaded into memory (one dot each 64KB) and you will be
25 prompted to insert the next floppy, <tt>fd002.img</tt>. And so on up to last
26 floppy.</p>
27
28 <p>You will be prompted to insert extra floppies for justx, gtkonly and core
29 flavors. You can bypass this by using B to boot without loading extra
30 floppies.</p>
