==What's on the CD==
===Linux===
The CD is a modified version of the Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy Heron) live CD. The main modifications are:
* All the software has been updated to the most recent version (as of Friday Oct 3rd 2008)
* Openoffice, media codecs and other software not normally on the disk has been included.
* OpenJDK 6 is included on this disk, as well as all the libraries used in first year java. These will be added to the default classpath.
===Windows===
When ran in windows the disk contains the sun java 6 installer, with modifications for first year java, as has been distributed by RedBrick in previous years. For instructions about how to use this installer see [http://www.redbrick.dcu.ie/~receive/java/ www.redbrick.dcu.ie/~receive/java/]
You can also download the windows installer on it's own from this page.
