There is probably an icon to install it to the HD. It will run slow off a CD, that's for testing purposes. If everything works you are good to go. You can install it along side your XP partition and it will automatically boot into the distro. If XP still works you can switch to it at the grub (menu before it loads the OS).Example: Music EXT drive has the top 100 songs of every year since the 50s' to 2003. The PC boots from a homemade CD that stays in the CD drive. To turn on I have to hit a bunch of F2 or F10 or whatever..........but when it goes it is Linux and it works. I almost feel stupid when I try to get it running.
I could never do something like that by myself. I have it out in the garage and I use it music only.
