the central processing unit (CPU), or microprocessor, which acts as the "brain" of
your computer? System Unit
2. What is the drive stores information and has a rigid platter or stack of platters with a
magnetic surface and usually serve as your computer's primary means of storage,
holding almost all of your programs and files?
3. A device used to play sound that may be built into the system unit or connected with
cables and specially allow you to listen to music and hear sound effects from your
computer?
4. A device used mainly for typing text into your computer that have function keys,
found on the top row, perform different functions depending on where they are used?
5. A small device used to point to and select items on your computer screen and
connected to the system unit by a long wire that resembles a tail or some are
wireless?

INFORMATION SHEET 1.3-2: (Installing Open source OS using optical devices)
1. You must use software for which the original source code is made freely available and
may be and modified. This ensures that you can recover your data in case
vendor/project stopped working on software or refused to provide patches.
2. Finally, you must able to see backup reports, current job status, and get alert when
something goes wrong while making backups.
3. Make sure backup software works well on the OS deployed on all desktop and server
operating systems.
4. Open source software can provide community based (such as email list or fourm) or
professional (such as subscriptions provided at additional cost) based support. You
can use paid professional support for training and consulting purpose.
5. Open data format ensures that you can recover data in case vendor or project
stopped working on software.
6. It is a data compression technique for eliminating duplicate copies of repeating data
(for example, images).
7. Make sure you can backup data on tape, disk, DVD and in cloud storage such as
AWS.
8. Make sure all client-to-server traffic will be encrypted to ensure transmission
integrity over the LAN/WAN/Internet.
9. It is Microsoft's Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS) and it is used to create
snapshots of data that is to be backed up. Make sure backup software support VSS
for MS-Windows client/server.
10. Backup software can split each backup (dumpfile) into a series of parts, allowing for
different parts to existing on different volumes. This ensures that large backups
(such as 100TB file) can be stored on larger than a single backup device such as disk
or tape volume.

LEARNING OUTCOME 3 : (Installing Open source OS using portable devices)
1. It brings together the best of free and open source software delivered on a stable,
easy to use and learn platform. Ubuntu claims to be always free of charge,
including enterprise releases and security updates. Finally, you must able to see
backup reports, current job status, and get alert when something goes wrong
while making backups.
2. It is a complete 32-bit multitasking “UNIX-like” system. It’s currently based
around the 2.6 Linux kernel series and the GNU C Library version 2.3.4 (libc6). It
contains an easy to use installation program, extensive online documentation, and
a menu-driven package system.
3. It is a worldwide community program sponsored by Novell that promotes the use
of Linux everywhere. The program provides free and easy access to openSUSE.
Here you can find and join a community of users and developers, who all have the
same goal in mind — to create and distribute the world’s most usable Linux.
4. It is a complete operating system for your computer. It’s the perfect choice for
replacing your proprietary, high-cost system. It is built on top of Debian
GNU/Linux and customized to meet your needs for a complete operating system
while still offering the user eye-candy, with minimal hardware requirements.
5. It is a business card size (50MB) bootable Live CD Linux distribution. Imagine the
ability to boot your favorite Linux distribution whether you are at home, at school
or at work… Requirements: CPU – Intel-compatible (pentium2 or later); RAM – at
least 128 MB (if 128 Mb or less, then run boot: al nocdcache).

LEARNING OUTCOME 3 : (Installing Open source OS using portable devices)
1. It is a tool that can help identify problems that might prevent Windows from starting
correctly. You can start Windows with common services and startup programs turned
off and then turn them back on, one at a time.
2. Starts Windows in the usual manner. Use this mode to start Windows after you're
done using the other two modes to troubleshoot the problem.
3. Starts Windows with basic services and drivers and the other services and startup
programs that you select.
4. On startup, opens the Windows graphical user interface (Windows Explorer) in safe
mode running only critical system services. Networking is disabled.
5. On startup, opens the Windows graphical user interface in minimal VGA mode. This
loads standard VGA drivers instead of display drivers specific to the video hardware
on the computer.
6. Shows driver names as drivers are being loaded during the startup process.
7. On startup, opens the Windows graphical user interface in safe mode running only
critical system services. Networking is enabled.
8. Stores all information from the startup process in the file %SystemRoot%Ntbtlog.txt.

LEARNING OUTCOME 3 : (Installing Open source OS using portable devices)
1. You might need to set Windows Update to automatically download and install
recommended updates.
2. Use this method to install a driver that you download from the manufacturer's
website. Do this if Windows Update can't find a driver for your device and the device
didn't come with software that installs a driver.
3. For example, if your device came with a disc, that disc might contain software that
installs a driver for the device.

LEARNING OUTCOME 4 : (Identifying different application)
1. End-user development tailors systems to meet users' specific needs. User software
includes spreadsheet templates and word processor templates.
2. Typical examples include office suites and video games. It is often purchased
separately from computer hardware. Sometimes applications are bundled with the
computer, but that does not change the fact that they run as independent
applications.
3. It includes the firmware, device drivers, an operating system, and typically a
graphical user interface which, in total, allow a user to interact with the computer
and its peripherals (associated equipment).

LEARNING OUTCOME 5: (Conduct testing and documentation)
1. Some BIOSes will report the descriptions of any Plug and Play expansion cards they
identify during the boot process.
2. The date of the BIOS can be important in helping you determine its capabilities, since
the "magic dates" of some features are fairly well known.
3. This distinctive logo is displayed if the BIOS supports the Energy Star standard,
which almost all newer ones do.
4. The I/O port addresses of your parallel or LPT ports. Normally there is one, with the
address 378h, but you may see 278h or 3BCh here.
5. The speed of the processor in MHz. Some BIOSes put the speed of the processor
together with the processor type display (the first line).
6. Most newer systems will display how many banks of memory have been found, and
what memory technology is in use; for example, you may see "EDO DRAM at Bank 1"
or "FP: 0" (FPM DRAM) or something similar.
7. This will (almost?) always be 640K. This is also called conventional memory.
8. The I/O port addresses of your serial or COM ports. Normally there are two, with
addresses 3F8h and 2F8h, but there can be three or four as well.
9. Most BIOSes will show an entry for each of the four devices on an IDE system: the
primary slave and master, and the secondary slave and master.
10. The size and capacity of the second detected floppy disk, B:
