Part 1

Background

Installation/Startup

DEFT is a LiveCD .iso so startup is as easy as setting the BIOS to boot from the CD/DVD drive, and inserting a disc with the burned iso. No virtualization software was needed, but first attempts at running this distribution involved the use of VirtualBox.

After booting up in a VirtualBox VM with 512 MB RAM allocated, it was soon realized that in order to get a true experience out of DEFT, being a forensic tool, it would be more appropriate to run on an existing machine running Windows.
