VNUML Live DVD

In order to easily test VNUML without having to install it in your computer, we have created VNUML-Live-DVD: a Ubuntu 6.06 based live dvd that includes the VNUML tool installed together with most of the examples available on this web.

You can download VNUML-Live-DVD from Sourceforge. See Download page.

See below some useful notes about VNUML-Live-DVD:

  • Keyboard. Live DVD uses by default the english keymap. You can change to other keymap by pressing F3 key during boot up.
  • VNUML-Live-DVD over VMware. You can test it without restarting your machine using free VMware Player. In order to do that, just download the vnuml-live-2.0-vmplayer.zip file from VNUML SourceForge site and follow the instructions inside.
  • Installation on hard disk. If you install VNUML-Live-DVD on your hard disk (by clicking on the install button on your desktop), take into account that there is a known problem related to user management: the user you are asked to create during installation process is not created correctly. So after installation is finished and you restart the computer, you won´t be able to login with that user. Use the default user (ubuntu/ubuntu) to access the system and re-create the user through the administration menus.

Other VNUML based LIVE CD/DVD initiatives

  • VIMINAL, a Gentoo based LiveCD including VNUML developed by Jacques Landru.
