Mundus OS For Linux

Mundus OS is a freely distributed, desktop-oriented Linux kernel-based operating system derived from the world’s most popular distribution of Linux, Ubuntu. It has been designed from the offset to be friendly with users who want to migrate from Microsoft Windows or Mac OS X proprietary OSes.

The Mundus OS distribution can be downloaded from Softpedia or directly from its official website as a dual-arch Live DVD ISO image that has approximately 1 GB in size, designed to run on computers supporting either of the 32-bit or 64-bit instruction set architectures.

Being based on Ubuntu, the distro come with a Live DVD boot menu that is identical with the one of the upstream operating system. When booting the ISO image from the BIOS of a PC, using a DVD disc or a USB thumb drive, it will ask you to choose a language to use.

From the Live CD boot menu, the user can try the distribution without installing it, start the installer directly, check the bootable medium for defects (only if using a DVD disc), boot from the local drive, as well as to perform a system memory diagnostic test.

By default, you will be dropped to a login prompt, where you must use the “ubuntu” username without password to login. GNOME is the default desktop environment, using the legendary two-panel layout.

The distribution comes with all the necessary tools to help users install a wide range of applications that were designed only for the Microsoft Windows operating system, as well as to mound DMG files created for Mac OS X. It comes pre-loaded with all the standard GNOME apps.
