[edit] LiveCD
Once you have started the livecd I know you are eager to start testing Bongo. Unfortunately you will need to configure the system before you will be able to do that.
Now don't run away it is not as hard as you think, No really.
Use the following steps to configure the livecd so you can play. Just remember that this is a livecd so that really cool e-mail you sent to your special person will be gone once you reboot your machine.
Right down to business.
You should see the following screen once the system has booted
In this screen you can see that we have given you a link to the initial configuration page. The URL looks something like this https://IPADDRESS:8003 enter it into your favorite browser
don't for get the https or it will error out.

Then click on submit
You will then be asked to click on OK, this will take you to the root password setting screen that looks like this
