Arramagong is a self-contained live DVD and Virtual Machine, based on XUbuntu, that allows you to try a wide variety of open source geospatial software without installing anything. It is composed entirely of free software, allowing it to be freely distributed, duplicated and passed around.

Arramagong provides effective tools for a range of geospatial use cases, including storage, publishing, viewing, analysis and manipulation of data. It also contains sample datasets and standard software products, including Apache Web Server, Apache Tomcat Application Server, Sun Java, PostgreSQL and PGAdmin.

You can use Arramagong without the need to install anything. Simply reboot your machine with the DVD in the tray, or run the Virtual Machine inside VMware Player or VirtualBox. In the boot menu selection choose "live", or wait 10 secs for the automatic select. The DVD/Virtual Machine will then start Linux and you will be able to trial all the applications and services directly from the desktop.

Application passwords are in the passwords.txt file on the desktop.

Most of the applications can be installed on Apple OSX and Microsoft Windows as well. The Arramagong Live DVD has Macintosh Leopard/Snow Leopard and Windows XP/Vista installers in the WindowsInstallers and MacInstallers folders.
