I've done this in the past with CCP4 and KNOPPIX, following similar steps to those that Bill reports. See www.knoppix.net I think its useful for training and demos, since you know what you have, and are not at the mercy of the host machine. But its not a substitute for the real thing. Its slower, and you have to burn a new CD everytime something is updated. I believe that KNOPPIX works with DVDs now, but for CDs at least, the space limitation is a pain. I'm also duty-bound to mention the CCP4 licence, which restricts re-distribution of parts of CCP4, so be careful who you give those CDs to ;-) Cheers Martyn On Sun, 5 Feb 2006, Lucas Bleicher wrote: > *** For details on how to be removed from this list visit the *** > *** CCP4 home page http://www.ccp4.ac.uk *** > > > I recently found this: > > http://labcacc.iq.unesp.br/kcristal/ > > They made a "live CD" with a small linux distro and > crystallography software (mostly for powder > diffraction/rietveld refinement), so one could boot > any machine with the CD and analyze data, no need to > install all the stuff.
