A new version 0.5 including a Tiki 3.0 beta1 (March 3rd, 2009) is here. In addition, subversion is installed so it will be very easy to upgrade to any further version from within the Live CD itself through getting the proper branch from the repositories. See dev:Download for more details.

alternative download server

Bonus: See the video showing how it was upgraded from a previous TikiLiveCD!

Still todo:

• Add link from tw installs to see the included videos and screencasts in the live CD

Comments:

• You need to download the .iso file, and burn a CD with it through your favorite .iso burning application (K3b, Brasero, Nero, Easy CD Recorder, ...). Then, insert the recorded CD on the CD drive and ensure that your computer is able to boot from the CD before booting from the hard drive. You might need to access your BIOS settings to change boot sequence, if the TikiLiveCD does not start automatically.
• Root user of the GNU/Linux system and its MySQL is:
  • user: root
    password: toor
• Admin users on that tiki are:
  • user: root
    password: toor
  • user: admin
    password: nimda
    (following the same convention of users and passwords as Slax does. Nevertheless, firefox was saved remembering admin password for easiness of testing on the Live CD)
• TikiTests can be recorded but not played back, due to missing packages on the base Slax 0.5x live CD where this TikiLiveCD is based upon.

-(Version 0.2)------

It has been created by teachers of the courses at Altercoms, from SLAX GNU/Linux Live/CD distribution (http://www.slax.org, vesion 5.1.8, server edition), based on a Slackware GNU/Linux distribution. And this "Slax-TikiLiveCD" has been financed by the Department of Presidency from the Autonomous Government of Catalonia (Generalitat de Catalunya - http://www.gencat.cat), with the project reference 2006 FTIC 00270.

Once you get the ISO, and burn it to a CD, boot your computer from the CD. Click on the desktop icon saying "TikiWiki", and there it is. You might likt to change the language of the KDE interface, plus keyboard, or Tiki interface. Proceed as usual to do so, or ask for support if needed.

To log in as admin user, you can do it with the same username and password than the superuser from the Slax-Tiki Live CD:

The following is also availabe on that CD:

• PhpMyAdmin, to manage db through web interface.
• and a TikiWiki 1.10cvs installation, "ready" for the course on Admin. Tiki sites, level II, held at Altercoms Cooperative (see below). We mean, that Tiki is not fully installed, but only copied the files in place, and the database has not been created either. This has been left "as is" intentionally, so that those are duties that the attendant to the course of 2nd level will have to learn in short.... . More info at: http://moviments.net/cursos
• The notes from the courses (in pdf), and some other document and utility, are inside the "extra" folder, that you may find if you go to the desktop, upper left corner of the screen, where it says Home ("Inici"). Note that notes are mostly in Catalan. You can also get them from: http://gclub.cursos.ourproject.org
