Does anyone know how to take a screenshot of the installation of Linux? I am using Fedora 7 and Ubuntu 7.04, and can use PC Linux OS. I have googled for this, but can only find how to take screenshots once the distro is installed. Thanks

I don't know if this helps, but in ubuntu you can boot with the live cd and start the installation from there, then you can take screens just by using applications -> accessories-> take screenshot.

Run the install in a VM (like vmware). I'm sure you could get a decent screenshot with such a setup.

I haven't thought of that. I think I just save the screenshots to my flash drive, so they'll be saved when I exit the live CD. If that doesn't work, I will just have to try to get it to boot in VM.

Thanks for the help
