There are several efforts to create Live CDs of GNUstep
GNUSTEP Live CD
of Gürkan Sengün, Version 1.0 released on November 6, 2006
Bugs
- Some Apps can't be started from GWorkspace, instead openapp <MyApplication> is required -- Which?
- Some windows (for instance in DBModeler.app) can't be accessed since the title bar is offscreen (a seasoned gnustepper knows how to fix this but what about the newbees?)
- Some menus behave oddly
- Sometimes a PS/2 mouse isn't recognized (differs from boot time to boot time on the same hardware)

Feature Requests
- it should be obvious how to install GNUSTEP on HD from within the Live CD (ideally by employing a GUI based wizard)
