what is a live CD Linux distribution?
A LiveCD, Live CD or LiveDistro is a computer operating system that is executed upon boot, without installation to a hard drive. Typically, the LiveDistro is named after the bootable medium it is stored on, such as a CD-ROM (Live CD), DVD (Live DVD) or a USB flash drive (Live USB). For Example- KNOPPIX is a bootable CD with a collection of GNU/Linux software, automatic hardware detection, and support for many graphics cards, sound cards, SCSI and USB devices and other peripherals. KNOPPIX can be used as a Linux demo, educational CD, rescue system, or adapted and used as a platform for commercial software product demos. It is not necessary to install anything on a hard disk. Due to on-the-fly decompression, the CD can have up to 2 GB of executable software installed on it.
