+Chapter 1.2: Booting the image
+==============================
+
+Now that you have the ISO file, you need to put the image on media of some sort and boot the image for installation.
+
+**This requires additional research on your own, as this varies depending on your hardware.**
+
+Choosing the media
+------------------
+In order to boot the image, you need to put it somewhere. You have three choices, depending on which image you
+downloaded:
+
+.
+ - a CD (**only works with the alternate images**)
+ - a DVD
+ - a 1 GB (or greater) USB drive
+
+
+Writing/burning the image
+-------------------------
+Here are some common tools to burn images onto CDs/DVDs:
+ - `Brasero <https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Brasero/>`_
+ - Windows Disc Image Burner
+ - Infra Recorder
+
+Unfortunately, burning images to CDs or DVDs is beyond the scope of this manual. The Ubuntu website has several guides
+on this topic, and we recommend you read them if you plan on doing this.
+
+Guides from the Ubuntu website:
+ - `How to burn a DVD on Ubuntu <http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/burn-a-dvd-on-ubuntu>`_
+ - `How to burn a DVD on Windows <http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/burn-a-dvd-on-windows>`_
+ - `How to burn a DVD on OS X <http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/burn-a-dvd-on-mac-osx>`_
+
+For writing images to USB drives on Linux, we recommend `mkusb <https://help.ubuntu.com/community/mkusb>`_, a tool developed by a Lubuntu team member.
+
+Writing images to USB drives from Mac OS X or Windows is beyond the scope of this book, but the Ubuntu website also
+has several guides on this:
+
+.
+ - `How to create a bootable USB stick on Windows <http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows>`_
+ - `How to create a bootable USB stick on OS X <http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-mac-osx>`_
+
+
+Booting the image
+-----------------
+With your media inserted, reboot your computer. Depending on your hardware configuration, it may boot into the image
+right away, or you might need to press a key at startup for boot options. This varies.
+
+**You have now booted the image. Please continue to Chapter 1.3.**
