For a long while, there has been the BDI disk (based on Debian's stable branch, Sarge) - The latest version includes both a stable build based on the original EMC code as well as emc2. Although not a Live CD, it does come with a simple to use point'n'click installer that takes you through the install in half a dozen steps. For the more experienced user, it also provides finer control over what packages get installed - If you don't need the development tools or a lightweight window manager, go with the default selection. The installer has been tested on a wide range of machines, including a 433MHz Celeron with just 128M memory and an AMD64 with 1Gig RAM - SATA disks have not been tried... A full list of packages on the CD can be found at http://bdi4emc.ourproject.org/Package_list.html and links to the downloads at http://bdi4emc.ourproject.org/Where_to_get_it.html - Note: You get all the tools needed to compile emc2 should you want to.
