I.e. you must (as usual) burn the ISO file to a CD if you want to run the system live on your computer or install it to hard drive. Read about how to burn ISO files.

But why is Jesus the light and what is darkness? Wasn't he some great teacher who taught that everyone should live in peace and harmony with one another? Yes...but there's a LOT more. There...
