== DVD Installation ==
Installing LinuxMCE-1404 from DVD is the fastest and easiest way to try the development version of LMCE:

* Grab the most recent installation DVD snapshot from http://linuxmce.iptp.org/snapshots/
* Burn the .iso file to a DVD or create a usb installer (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick)
* Boot the DVD/USB drive in the system you wish to be your 'Core' or 'Hybrid' system.
* Choose to install a Hybrid or Core Only. Hybrid is the recommended method, choose Core Only if you don't wish to have a monitor attached (and only if you know what you are doing.)
* Follow the installation instructions in the ubiquity installer.
* After installation your machine will reboot and perform some initial setup activities. There will be very little indication that anything is happening. Be patient. Your system *may* reboot automatically , especially if new video drivers were installed, once these initial setup steps are complete.
* On the second boot following installation you will be presented with the AVWizard and can choose your video resolution and audio device.
* You will then proceed to the Setup Wizard where you will follow Sarah's instructions for configuring your LinuxMCE system for your home and devices.
===Known Issues===
* initial install screens do not detect internet on anything but eth0. firstboot configures this properly after install, mostly a non-issue.
* virtualbox resolution setting only works with guest additions installed and the proper video output vga selected

==Internet Installation ==

* Please note: If the DVD installer method does not function then this is the way you will install. The DVD installer seems to have issues with software raids.

Installing LinuxMCE-1404 over the network is a fairly easy process that involves:

* Installing Kubuntu 14.04
* Installing LinuxMCE-1404 on top of Kubuntu 14.04

# Install Precise Pangolin desktop and update it. (download Kubuntu 14.04 '''desktop''' release from ...
# Grab the latest installer script from [https://git.linuxmce.org/linuxmce/linuxmce/raw/master/src/install-helpers/mce-install.sh our servers].
# Run the following (as root): mce-install.sh
# Reboot, wait for the activity to stop (see progress on console).

In other words, after installing Kubuntu run the following:
sudo -i
wget -q https://git.linuxmce.org/linuxmce/linuxmce/raw/master/src/install-helpers/mce-install.sh && chmod +x mce-install.sh
./mce-install.sh
reboot

If you have problems with any aspect of the system please log a [http://svn.linuxmce.org/ trac ticket].

== Keeping up with updates ==
LinuxMCE-1404 is under constant testing and development.
To follow along with new package releases look at [[LinuxMCE-1204/1404 pre-alpha]]

Once you have installed LinuxMCE-1404, all you need to do to keep up-to-date with the latest and greatest, is run the following from a terminal on the core and each MD:
sudo -i # (only necessary on the core)
apt-get update
apt-get dist-upgrade
