Get Puredyne one of three ways: (1) download and burn it on a CD or DVD, (2) purchase the Puredyne USB, or (3) download and create your own bootable USB stick.

(1) Download and create a live CD or DVD

(2) Puredyne USB

Puredyne also can be bought, in the shape of a 4GB bootable USB stick. It is tiny, but provides you with the complete puredyne GNU/Linux system including all software, and extra space to store your files. Once you have the key, follow these instructions to boot Puredyne on your machine. (Note: this is an open-source/free-software project and so as usual the software is distributed in the hope that it will be useful but without any warranty! 🙂 PC ONLY: the current stick cannot boot on Mac (do you know why? tell us!)

(3) Create your own bootable USB

Of course you can also create your own bootable USB stick. It takes a bit more effort, but it’s well worth it! Using the provided make-live-device.sh script you can easily create a liveUSB or liveHD directly from an existing ISO, or better, directly from Puredyne itself! Instructions here
