LinuxConsole project can be started from CD/DVD, Hard disk, floppy disk, USB disk, or network card (PXE).
The 'console' word doesn't mean that it is started in 'console' mode, but is meant to symbolize the simplicity of using it.
This distribution is as simple to use as a games console: you can start applications without installing them. It is a live CD, and all hardware should be auto-configured at first boot.
LinuxConsole is modular: there is a common base (device detection, GUI) and optional modules for multimedia, communication, and servers.
