The only time you need to use the terminal is basically first run,
where you edit the /etc/apt/sources.list (commenting out the "CD" and
adding the trinity repositories). Then you run "sudo su apt-get
update" and "# apt-get install <your additional software packages>.
Assuming that you use sudo like I do, rather than root. Restart and
you are off and running.

it is not that hard if you know how to work on the console, but for a
person who does not know how to edit a file with vim, it might be a big
challange
Wasn't there a live CD of TDE?

Yes, thanks Slavek! I am a great admirer of your work. However, I've tried
most of the live CDs (at least, the 'buntus & Debian):
From the list on that page, I've tried:
Exe Gnu/Linux
PCLinuxOS (external)
PCLinuxOS (internal)
Q4OS
Slax with Trinity
Ubuntu Nightly
Ubuntu Releases
Ubuntu (thirdparty)
I tried every Ubuntu TDE release from 10.04 through 16.04.
14.04 and 16.04 worked pretty well, but I still ended up having problems.
(System freezes up, or network problems, or sudden crashes ... the list is
long, but my method is to get rid of non-TDE stuff, or to disable some
configurations in KDE, Gnome, etc.) I described this in more detail in other
messages.
They got better and better, but thus far do not work as well as my taking the
scenic route when installing Debian and then TDE.
