<h1>1. Burn a USB flash drive</h1>
<p>TODO</p>
<h1>2. Boot from USB flash drive</h1>
<p>Most computers automatically boot from a USB stick. Simply insert it and turn on your computer or restart it. You should see a meny, prompting you to choose ….</p>
<p>If your computer doesnt automatically boot from USB, try holding down the F12 key at first boot or ESC. With most machines, this will allow you to select the USB device from a system-specific boot menu.</p>
<p>F12 and ESC are the most common key to bring up your systems boot menu, but F2 and F10 are common alternatives. If youre not sure, look for a brief message at your systems startup - it will often tell you which key to press to bring up the boot menu.</p>
<p>Else try to find the correct key over the web, or dont hesitate to ask for help at our forum or chat room.</p>
<h1>3. Start OpenMandriva Lx live mode</h1>
<p>You will first be asked to start live mode. Itll automatically start after 30 seconds. Live mode can be used for testing the distribution without touching the disk space, or for installing the distribution.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>From that menu you can change the language and keyboard layout. This has no incidence on keyboard layout and language for actual installation, which will be asked later.<br>&nbsp;</p>

<p>Please note that the default keyboard layout of live mode is US QWERTY, so it may be tricky if you want to set a user password for installation without actually checking the characters. The number of languages and layouts for live mode is very limited for live mode, but there are much more choice during actual installation later.</p>

<p>Here comes the most important moment of the installation, as its about how it will be installed on your hard drive. Depending on if you already have once or more operating system already installed on your disk, Calamares can offer you:</p>
<p>Some automated options :</p>
<ul>
<li>Shrink an existing partition and install OpenMandriva Lx alongside any other OS already available on your system. If you have a Windows partition, this is the option you may want to choose to keep this operating system. (recommended for beginners)</li>
<li>Use an existing partition and it will replace all files and/or OS on that partition with a new install of OpenMandriva Lx. (advanced users)</li>
<li>Use the entire disk and will create one partition where all will be installed under root, all other partitions will be removed. (beginners)</li>
</ul>
<p>And manual option:</p>
<ul>
<li>This method gives you the freedom to set any option, any filesystem and partition table, but leaves it entirely up to you to completely break the install too. Make sure you know what you are doing. Another page will be created for advanced partitioning. (expert users)</li>
</ul>
<p>Alongside with the selected option, there is an option for swap file (there will be a dedicated thread for swap). Unless you know what you do, Swap to file is a good option.<br>&nbsp;</p>

<p>Check the “encrypt system” option if you want to add a layer of security to your data. The system will ask you the password entered each time you start the system.</p>
