TeX Live ISO Images

See the TeX Live home page for general information about TL.

This directory contains ISO images for the TL 2007 release. md5 and sha256 checksums for each image are provided.

Please download the live image from your nearest CTAN mirror.

For 2007, there are two images:

live (DVD)

can be run directly from the distribution media, or installed to hard disk. This is the one recommended for general use, and the one you can download from any CTAN host. It is also available via BitTorrent, at http://thepiratebay.org/tor/3630644, thanks to Philip Taylor.

inst (CD)

includes all the same programs and packages, but for only three architectures (i386-linux, powerpc-darwin, win32), so it fits on a standard CD. Also, the data is compressed, so it can only be installed, not run live. The only reason to use this is to burn a physical CD. The inst image (md5 checksum) is available:

• from Germany, thanks to DANTE e.V.;
• from the Czech Republic, thanks to CSTUG;
• via BitTorrent, at http://thepiratebay.org/tor/3629108.

The images here contain only TeX Live 2007. The TeX Collection DVD distributed by the TeX user groups contains much additional material. Please consider joining a user group to support TeX.

There is no guaranteed support of the contents of this directory.
