6. Navigate to the PC Linux folder and run fixpclos.bat

Ok if u need to install extra programs then u will have to format the pen drive in a linux partition and them install the os.

as i have mentioned in the article when u copy paste the files what it does is it will run as a live cd. but with almost all the programs u will need.

so if u need extra programs simply format the pen drive in a linux partition and them intall the os in it (there is a install icon on the desktop; the installation is easy as installing a software to ur pc; takes about 5mins )

but before u install it permanently i think its best to try it as live cd on a fat32 partitioned pen drive.

Seems like that fixpclos.exe link not allowing to hot link and transfer the download request to their homepage. I updated it again, but not sure.
So I think its better to put it on a file host and give the link. But you will have to keep update with the new version of the file.
For now here you go...
