Making a bootable Pen Drive for Installation of Hamara

Creating Making a bootable Pen Drive for Installation of Hamara

On MS-Windows

1. Have a download manager. For instance, http://freedownloadmanager.org/ is one such client, install it as you would any MS-Windows program.

2. Now download the .iso you want from https://www.hamaralinux.org/download .

Now here you have two choices -

a. http://downloads.hamaralinux.org/final/hamara_1.0.2_i686.iso - (32 bit) b. http://downloads.hamaralinux.org/final/hamara_1.0.2_amd64.iso -(64 bit)

Notes -

1. The release number shared is just a symbol. The release numbers will change as newer releases come. 2. The difference between 32-bit and 64-bit are basically on how much memory they can use, how much hard disk space they can use as well as also a bit on multi-core and parallel processing as well.

The 32-bit cannot use more than 4 GB of RAM so you cannot have too many web-pages in a browser open as well as many applications running at the same time without being sluggish. Modern browsers need and do lot of things in the background hence they use quite a bit of memory.

The 64-bit on the other hand, can theoretically can address upto 18 Exabytes but due to current processor and other technologies can only address upto 4 Pebibyte/Petabyte . One Pebibyte/Petabyte is 1024 Tebibyte/1000 Terabyte so we have quite some time to go at least on consumer devices.
