Before you begin
Make a backup of any locally stored data you wish to keep to a usb device or your home directory. Your home directory is network storage and does not get touched during the installation.
If you have sudo rights, you should know where you’ve put your files. If you don’t have sudo rights, you can only have placed files in /mnt/D/ and /var/tmp or maybe in /tmp if you never restart your PC. Some of you will have extra disks in your PC, these will not be touched during the installation. If and how these extra disks are mounted differs greatly. If you have sudo rights, you can add them to the fstab yourself after the installation. Ask us to add them if you don’t.
The installation of the LWP will require 120GB of disk space. A dual-boot installation will require at least 250GB of disk space.
After you've made your backups, restart your PC.
LWP only
At startup, press F12 to boot from the network.
From the menu, choose Install LWP.

The installation will take 30-45 minutes to finish depending on your hardware. After the installation is finished your system will automatically restart. When the LWP starts the first time, some configuration still has to be done. You will see the following screen.
This should disappear after a few minutes (~5 minutes). When it’s done the login screen will appear and you can login.
