Try before Installing
The Ubuntu Studio ISO is a live image, which means you can boot it and use all the default applications without installing it. Just create a bootable USB stick and try it out.
Boot from USB Stick
See this tutorial for how to create a USB stick. A minimum of an 8GB USB stick is required since the image is about 6.5GB in size.
Check ISO for corruption using checksum
After downloading the ISO, make sure to check it for corruption. Several methods are available, we recommend using SHA256. Go to the download directory, and use the command line program sha256sum. The output should be identical to the respective checksum found at the link below the downloads above. Read more about checking SHA256 sums.
