If you are new to Linux and are hesitant to make your system dual boot before getting a good taste of this popular open source OS, here is a collection of best Linux live CD's that will boot up an entire operating system without the need to install it on your hard disk.
1. KNOPPIX - One of most popular Live CD distribution and my favorite. This highly compressed distribution contains over 2GB of useful software giving you almost every tool found on a typical desktop system.
2. Ubuntu - In recent years, Ubuntu has raised itself as a leader in desktop version of Linux. This famous distribution also provides Live CD's for every new released distribution.
3. Gentoo - Light weight and very fast booting. Gentoo provides Live CD's for x686 and AMD (64-bit) platforms. Good Live distro for low configuration systems.
4. openSUSE - Novell offers two variants of Live CD (KDE Version & GNOME Version). Ideal for normal home/SOHO users.
5. FreeBSD LiveCD - A power-packed Linux Live CD for power users. A robust distro with advanced tools to convert your machine into a desktop, server, web server, router, bridge or a firewall. Recommended for experts.
