Boot
There are two ways to boot and use NST. A live boot, allows you to try out NST or use it for temporary rescue and analysis situations. A live boot has several limitations, but allows you to run NST without modifying your system. If you find NST to be useful, you will want to perform a full hard disk installation. Once installed to a hard disk, the NST will work like a typical Linux system - except that you will have a plethora of tools available to you through the comfort of your web browser.
Live Boot and Use
Live Boot and Install
From the live boot screen, select the Hard Disk Install boot option. After a few moments (depending upon the speed of your hardware), you should be taken to the hard disk installation screen shown below.
From this point, you should be able to proceed with the NST 20 Hard Disk Installation.
