Dear developers,

Is there any tips to run antiX directly from ISO on HDD like Ubuntu Alternate with Grub?

anticapitalista, I cant install it __{{emoticon}}__
I'm using the latest antiX base ISO

After login with demo & demo then I go to Admin > Installation
It's asking for password, I entered: demo and nothing happen.

How to make installation work?

The password for root is root, so when asked for password for installation, type root.

BTW base is very basic ie few apps.

Thanks, it's working now.
I just want to test it first before download the full ISO, it's cool and really light __{{emoticon}}__

The problem now is I cant be as root, example:
user: saxman
pass user: doremifa
pass root: solasido

sudo apt-get install mozilla-firefox

it's asking for pass, both pass didnt work
so I try: sudo su (I always use this in Ubuntu) and enter the pass, both pass didnt work too

How to be as root in antiX?

No sudo in antiX.
Use su or sux (better for gui apps)
