That's what I'm downloading. It looked like an install DVD to me, and not a live-run DVD. I guess I'll find out in a few minutes. I do like to test drive new releases on a Live DVD and not actually do an install until I'm happy with it.

I believe ALL are Live... you just have to install/run them correctly....
I don't even have a cd/dvd on my PC anymore.. only external, besides net, is USB...
UNbootin have cut many options... but it IS still usable... like I said, I had to go prehistoric, and reformat my flash to FAT16 (more or less Win95)...
after about 5 retry (live)boots, ending in fail.... I did that (reformat to the FAT16)... reinstall (using UNetboot)... worked first time, after I reformatted before I, again, installed the new OS (Mint KDE 16)..

The partitioning is up to you.. but I manually did 1. boot - 2. SWAP- 3. Root- 4. Home ....
