\marginnote{While the 64-bit version of Ubuntu is referred to as the ``AMD64'' version, it will work on Intel, AMD, and other compatible 64-bit processors.} Once your download is complete, you will be left with a file called \emph{ubuntu-10.10-desktop-i386.iso} or similar (\emph{i386} here in the filename refers to the 32-bit version. If you had downloaded the 64-bit version, the filename would contain \emph{amd64} instead). This file is a \acronym{CD} image\dash a snapshot of the contents of a \acronym{CD}\dash which you will need to burn to a \acronym{CD}. You can find detailed instructions at \url{https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto}.

If your \acronym{PC} will boot from a \acronym{USB} port, you may opt to use a \acronym{USB} memory stick instead of a Live \acronym{CD}. You can find further instructions at \url{https://help.ubuntu.com/10.10/installation-guide/i386/boot-usb-files.html}. If you choose this option, your installation will be running from the \acronym{USB} memory stick. In this case, references to Live \acronym{CD}, will refer to the \acronym{USB} memory stick.

The Ubuntu \acronym{CD} functions not only as an installation \acronym{CD} for putting Ubuntu onto your computer, but also as a Live \acronym{CD}. A Live \acronym{CD} allows you to test Ubuntu without making any permanent changes to your computer by running the entire operating system from the \acronym{CD}.

Your computer reads information from a \acronym{CD} at a much slower speed than it can read information off of a hard drive. Running Ubuntu from the Live \acronym{CD} also occupies a large portion of your computer's memory, which would usually be available for applications to access when Ubuntu is running from your hard drive. The Live \acronym{CD} experience will therefore feel slightly slower than it does when Ubuntu is actually installed on your computer. Running Ubuntu from the \acronym{CD} is a great way to test things out and allows you to try the default applications, browse the Internet, and get a general feel for the operating system. It's also useful for checking that your computer hardware works properly in Ubuntu and that there are no major compatibility issues.

\marginnote[-9\baselineskip]{In some cases, your computer will not recognize that the Ubuntu \acronym{CD} or \acronym{USB} is present as it starts up and will start your existing operating system instead. Generally, this means that the priority given to \emph{boot devices} when your computer is starting needs to be changed. For example, your computer might be set to look for information from your hard drive, and then to look for information on a \acronym{CD} or \acronym{USB}. To run Ubuntu from the Live \acronym{CD} or \acronym{USB}, we want the computer to look for information from the appropriate device first. Changing your \emph{boot priority} is beyond the scope of this guide. If you need assistance to change the boot priority, see your computer manufacturer's documentation for more information.} To try out Ubuntu using the Live \acronym{CD}, insert the Ubuntu \acronym{CD} into your \acronym{CD} drive and restart your computer.

\marginnote{Alternatively, you can also use your mouse to double-click the ``Install Ubuntu 10.10'' icon that is visible on the desktop when using the Live \acronym{CD}. This will start the Ubuntu installer.} When you are finished exploring, restart your computer by clicking the ``Power'' button in the top right corner of your screen (a circle with a line through the top) and then select \menu{Restart.} Follow the prompts that appear on screen, including removing the Live \acronym{CD} and pressing \keystroke{Enter} when instructed, and then your computer will restart. As long as the Live \acronym{CD} is no longer in the drive, your computer will return to its original state as though nothing ever happened!

At least 2.6\acronym{GB} of free space on your hard drive is required in order to install Ubuntu; however, 15~\acronym{GB} or more is recommended. This will ensure that you will have plenty of room to install extra applications later on, as well as store your own documents, music, and photos.

If you have an Internet connection, the installer will ask you if you would like to ``Download updates while installing,'' and if you would like to ``Install this third-party software.'' The latter option includes the Fludendo MP3 codec. Updates and third-party software installation can be completed at a later time.
