You need to boot your system from the CD. It's NOT a Windows program...

Re: how to install slitaz 4.0

here are the steps:

- create a new Slitaz partition by using Gparted (Menu/Applications -> System tools -> Gparted)

- after you create the new hard disk partition, use Slitaz Panel (Menu/Applications -> System tools -> Slitaz Panel)

- On the top right corner, there is "Install" menu.

Then follow the instructions.

@lordmix

for slitaz installation you can easily use the slitaz install program which you'll find under => Application => System Tools => SliTaz Panel

After login with root, root you'll see at the panel of the tazpanel (the last comment) "Install". just click this button and everything further you'll  manage easily by the very good installation guide.

Or if you'll go for "by hand installation" follow these instructions:

@forsik

Now you have to use

  # tazinst <config-file>

to install SliTaz from a terminal

Re: how to install slitaz 4.0

Where to read the contents of the config-file? What is the most simple way to install the new OS from the console?

Tazpanel create a file config in /var/lib/tazinst.conf

If the file does not exist, you can create it; first , then

tazinst new /var/lib/tazinst.conf (or an other name or/and in an other directory as you want)

edit the file (you must be root):

# nano /var/lib/tazinst.conf

modify instructions according tou your configuration.

install SliTaz:

# tazinst install /var/lib/tazinst.conf

You can find help concerning tazinst typing:
