Finally, you are ready to install the software on your system. Every distribution has a different mechanism for doing this. Many distributions have a self-contained program which will step you through the installation.
Some distributions offer several different ways to install the software.
For example, you may be able to install the software directly from an MS-DOS partition on your hard drive, instead of from floppies. See your distribution's documentation for details. Use of setup is described in detail below. The exact method used to install the Linux software differs greatly with each distribution. We're hoping that installing the Linux software should be self-explanatory, as it is with most distributions.
