I have no idea about a "Live CD", but installing Scribus from an RPM is simple on a RedHat-based real Linux installation. Even compiling from source is a nothing-to-it proposition on Fedora Core 3. Configure, compile, install, done deal. Start composing. > Reading the online handbook's target usage list, I find newsletters listed > but not small newspapers, and wonder whether it is designed to handle, > say, a 12 to 24-page tabloid? Friends (and clients) of mine create a 40--page newspaper, a 28-page newspaper, and a 2-page "coffee chat paper". Every week, on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Using Scribus. The 40-page paper is printed on a Heidelberg web press. The other papers are printed on 4 Risographs. Does that answer your question?
