'''Before installing, check out the [[Known Issues|Known issues]], and please read the [[Installation Guide]] and/or the [[DVD Installation]] guide.''' Installing from DVD is the fastest. Installing from CD .iso images on your hard disk is second fastest (you will need to install [http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/kubuntu/8.10/ Kubuntu 8.10] first), and installing from burned CDs is slowest.

'''NOTE:''' It is a good idea to use md5sum and the checksums to verify your download is not corrupted.

'''NOTE:''' It is ''essential'' that you burn your CDs and DVDs using the slowest possible speed your burner supports - faster speeds regularly cause corruptions on the burn which will be fatal to your install.

The current preferred installation candidate is LinuxMCE 1404.
While the current preferred installation candidate is still being worked on and may have some known issues, it generally works better with newer hardware and works at least as well as previous versions. The versions older than LinuxMCE 1404 are stable but no longer under development.

The latest version under development is LimuxMCE 1604, and the up to date snapshot DVDs are linked in the download locations.

Please use the Bit Torrent downloads wherever possible, to ensure a clean, uncorrupted download, and then leave it seeding as long as possible.
