Don't forget to check those MD5 sums!! Nobody likes a bad download.

NOTE: For both VMware and Virtual Box, we are providing the hard drive file. This will allow you to configure the virtual machine appropriately for your hardware and software (Virtual Box, VMware Player/Server/ESX...). Parallels users should download the VMware install as Parallels will import VMware disks. We are in the process of documenting the setup procedures for each of these if you are not familiar with creating/configuring a new virtual machine.

Documentation

The following general documentation exists:

• How I created the live CD
• Making Modules]
• Add modules to a running system
• Starting the SSH daemon on the Live CD
• Checking sources to avoid malicious modifications, bad downloads, etc
• How to increase the VMware drive size non-destructively.

Note there also documentation for each module's creation on the Current Tool List and the Supporting Software List. Come to think of it, there are 300+ tools listed under Potential Tool List and the pages linked from there as well.

I also have a few ToDo lists:

• Wiki ToDo
• General ToDo

Presentations on the OWASP Live CD

I gave a presentation on the OWASP Live CD at the local OWASP chapter on 2008-08-26. I've put the slides on the server in the following formats:

• OpenOffice (native format)
• PDF
• PowerPoint

(Note: A bug in export to PPT causes some funky symbols to be inserted when a line ends with a close parenthesis. I didn't clean up the PPT file)

Here's another presentation I gave on Open Source Tools at the local ISSA chapter. I have a few slides on the OWASP Live CD as well.

• PDF format

also, I created a page covering all the tools I mentioned in the slides with links, descriptions, etc. Open Source Tools Supplement
