Install on harddisk? Dock!

Dyne:bolic solves the problem of istallation in a very simple way: there is no installation :) you simply copy a directory and this is called "docking".

Docking lets you run the system from an harddisk, with shorter load time and more speed. With a dock you can also boot from floppy, or from a multi-boot partition.

Docking consists of copying the dyne/ directory from the CD to the harddisk. You don't need to change anything in your partition, just copy a directory into it: drag the dyne/ folder from the CD on the icon of your harddisk, that's it! It will occupy less than 700 megabytes of space. After 'docking', you can boot with the CD inside and it will eject automatically after the first phase of the boot process, this is the sign the dock went well! Like that, even without the need for repartitioning or configuring a double boot, you can just switch to dyne:bolic using a CD or a floppy, but still run it from harddisk at full speed, like an installed operating system - and even better! ;)

Of course when you want to remove the dock is easy: just delete the /dyne directory in your harddisk!

Remember that docking is different from nesting: Docking is done to run the system and all application from harddisk instead of CD, nesting is to store your home and settings in a single file on harddisk or usb storage.

More online information about docking is available on the wiki community pages.
