Hi Jamshaid, and welcome to Astlinux For a beginner, if you have access to a Windows machine, the easiest way to get started is probably the following:
1. Download the Astlinux ISO, and burn it to CD 2. Insert the CF card into a USB card reader (which you will need), and plug the card reader into the Windows machine 3. Insert the CD you burned into the Windows machine, and you should get an option to burn Astlinux to your CF card Tell us how you get on. The Windows installer was created some time ago, and has not been updated recently, so it might now not work properly. If it doesn't, the list will tell you how to proceed, and I'll have to update the Windows installer.
