Where is the link for burning the iso file? You write “First download the gOS image from this page and burn it onto a cd”. I am not seeing the download link. Please send me the download link. Thanks

@athul

you have to burn the image to a DVD, then change your boot preferences in your BIOS to boot your computer from your DVD drive ( try F2 or F11 to get into your BIOS) that way your computer will load the operating system on the DVD instead of the operating system you have on your harddrive. From the DVD operating environment, you can then install Gos.

Hi Mathew,
Well caldera is another distro ( linux) and it has nothing to do with GOS.
You can change the boot in your bios to start from usb or cdrom. then it should work.
You seem to have a computer that can boot from usb mine didnt, i had to burn so many cds till i installed since it was keep telling me could not get file from cdrom..

Hope you can help me out,
My computer recently crashed and I had been wanting to try Gos anyways. After burning the gos_space.iso file to a dvd using the nero program on another computer, I inserted the disk into my computer and booted. However, after Caldera DR-DOS loads it apparently freezes and says search for USB HDD Devices. I’m frustrated because one I was looking forward to trying a linux program and two I was told that Gos required nothing more than a computer. So I tried booting the disk in another computer that still works fine. This time I was held up at a DR-DOS command prompt A:\. What’s going on, I followed the directions?

Thanks guys,

Hi satish

I have a few questions.
Do I need to have win xp previously installed? n why?
How Gos deal with my devices such as audio, video, network, drivers and etc. does it recognize it automatically or does it need the XP for that?
Could Gos runs without xp at all?
is it faster than XP? I am very interested pls advice

Thanks Man

You should select G dvd writer. Image recorder is to record the image to the hard drive.

I hope this helps, feel free to drop in here if you still face any problems
