An easy and practical way of distributing free software without major complications is selling computer equipment with pre-installed Trisquel.

This practice leaves the staff side of the selection of hardware whose specifications are compatible with free software and user-side initial user settings such as language, location, user name, computer name and passwords.

Steps to an OEM installation:

1. Download the ISO image, copy it onto a CD or a USB device and install normally.

2. We use the following for installation:

• User name: OEM
• Login name: oem
• Password:123456 (can be any)
• Hostname: oem

3. Log on, connect to the internet and install the system updates that apply.

   sudo aptitude install oem-config
   sudo aptitude install oem-config-gtk

This will install the packages needed to configure the computer OEM.

6. Restart the computer.
