The Ark Linux Live software offers a Live CD version of Ark Linux, providing users with the ability to run the operating system from a CD without having to install it on their computer.
Ark Linux Live aims at being as close to the "normal" version of the operating system as possible. Though there are some known problems with the CD image, primarily the non-working languages in non-KDE applications, and error messages at bootup, most of the bugs will be fixed before the release of Ark Linux Live 2006.1.
The primary uses of a Live CD are: recovering a normal system after a hardware or software failure, checking the system out without any risk, demonstrating to others what Linux is like on their own hardware, and taking your favorite operating system like Ark Linux Live with you anywhere.
However, using Ark Linux Live as the primary operating system is not recommended. Instead, use Ark Linux Home for the purpose. Ark Linux is specifically designed for desktop use, especially for people without prior Linux experience. The distribution offers ease of use and provides many tools that every end user will need.
It is important to note that Ark Linux is fully Open Source and Free Software. This means that you can freely redistribute it in both modified and unmodified forms. Overall, Ark Linux Live is an excellent option for beginners looking for a desktop-friendly Linux distribution.
