==Burning CDs/DVDs and creating a bootable USB==
The live cd iso file being installed needs to match the system being used; for 64-bit x86-64 processors '''amd64''' is used, for 32-bit IA-32 processors '''i686''' is used.<ref name=":1" /> The supported architecture is listed at the end of the iso filename.

The CD can also boot from a customized DVD which has almost 4.6 GB of free space for backed-up files. This makes it good for storing all the information that is needed from a hard drive and then formatting it. To burn the DVD, one must burn the image file first and then add all the separate files and folders.<ref name=":1" /> This should not affect the general way in which the DVD works. The DVD can then be used to insert those files into the hard drive using Midnight Commander.

The system-rescue iso can be used to create a bootable USB device using tools such as [[Rufus (software)|rufus]], [[ventoy]], or the dedicated linux tool. The USB must have at least 2GB of storage and be formatted in FAT32.<ref>{{Cite web |title=SystemRescue - Installing SystemRescue on a USB memory stick |url=https://www.system-rescue.org/Installing-SystemRescue-on-a-USB-memory-stick/#:~:text=You%20should%20use%20a%202GB,a%20key%20at%20boot%20time. |access-date=2024-05-04 |website=www.system-rescue.org}}</ref>
