04.05.2005 : MCNLive CD, codename Brugge. Based on Mandriva Limited Edition 2005 with kernel 2.6.11, featuring a complete KDE desktop (on less than 300 MB) for internet, office, sound and video, graphics, games, educational programs and network tools. Dutch(user mcnl) and English (user root) available. Save your personal settings and your documents on an USB flash drive, create a persistent home. The 'Brugge' release comes with unionfs, it is enabled by default. You can install (into RAM) additional applications on the running LiveCD from preconfigured Mandriva ftp sources. You do need enough RAM to use this feature, 256 MB should be fine. Use the Mandriva Control Center to browse thousands of available packages or use 'urpmi' on command line. Add additional ftp sources if you like. Let MCNLive talk in your native language by installing the language files, example, as root do: urpmi kde-i18n-he, and Hebrew is available; urpmi kde-i18n-fr will turn MCNLive into French.
You can even add a new Desktop Environment/Window Manager: urpmi icewm-light
