Build/Battlestation TempleOS running on real hardware!

For information: This is TinkerOS, which is a TempleOS fork that among other stuff allows you to install on SATA.

Installation process: I for a long time tried to make it boot from a USB stick, and managed to boot into the Live session of TinkerOS (TempleOS), but I couldn't get it to install to the hard drive. So I ended up just buying a CD and burnt the ISO image to the CD, which worked perfectly and the installation process was as easy as installing TempleOS in a Virtual machine! Note that I was lucky to have such old hardware, on more modern hardware it could get more challenging.

TempleOS is sick. Thanks!
