Isprobaj ili instaliraj

Make the step – unless you wish to purchase a PC with GNU/Linux pre-installed, you can see what freedom looks like on your computer.

Launch operating system

Ne riskiraj ništa

Using a live USB stick means that GNU/Linux will be running on your computer without installing anything. It's a risk-less way to try and see by yourself what GNU/Linux is.

When running on a live USB stick, your computer uses solely the USB stick to work (without accessing the hard drive inside). You can launch all of the default programs, edit documents, and browse the web.

Since it is only designed as a trial mode, it is a little slow (it will take you five minutes to boot up, and programs launch somewhat slowly). If you proceed to install, the system will go much faster.

Što trebaš

For the distributions we recommend, the live USB stick is the same as the installation medium. You can download an ISO image (rather large file) and then create a bootable USB stick (recommended) or burn it to a CD or DVD. Burning to a CD/DVD may be necessary when installing GNU/Linux on an older system which can not boot from USB. You can then use it to install GNU/Linux onto your computer.

To use a live USB stick, you need a little bit of curiosity, and fifteen minutes of free time, but no advanced knowledge in computing. If you feel confident simply using Windows or macOS from time to time, then this is within your reach.

Instaliranje za biranje sustava

Odaberi prilikom pokretanja računala

GNU/Linux je moguće je instalirati zajedno sa sustavima Windows ili macOS. To znači da će se nakon pokretanja računala na ekranu pojaviti mogućnost biranja operacijskog sustava koji se želi pokrenuti.

Setting up a dual-boot can be helpful if you need time to abandon restrictive software. It is not difficult to set-up, though erasing Windows or macOS altogether is even easier.

Što trebaš

Instaliranje GNU/Linuxa na računalu traje manje od 30 minuta. To nije uobičajen korak za potpune početnike, ali ako svakodnevno koristiš računala, vrlo je vjerojatno da će ti poći lako od ruke. Ako već imaš iskustva s instaliranjem Windows ili MacOS sustava, instaliranje GNU/Linuxa ti neće stvarati probleme.

Note: Purchased and downloaded CDs are identical! GNU/Linux is free software. You are simply paying a handling/shipping fee.

Not all computers are shipped with Windows or macOS. If you do not wish to make the install yourself, or are in need of new hardware, you can get a laptop or a desktop pre-installed with GNU/Linux. LinuxPreloaded.com has compiled a list of vendors pre-installing GNU/Linux just for that reason.
