+
+You can't do much until you burn a SparrowOS CD-ROM from the ISO file
+and boot it, or you aim your virtual machine at the ISO file and boot.
+SparrowOS files are compressed and the source code can only be 
+compiled by the SparrowOS compiler... which is available when you boot
+the CD-ROM.  SparrowOS is 100% open source with all source present.
+
+SparrowOS is 64-bit and will not run on 32-bit hardware.
+
+SparrowOS may require you to enter I/O port addresses for the CD-ROM drive
+and the hard drive.  In Windows, you can find I/O port info in the
+Accessories folder, System Tools, System Info, Hardware Resources, 
+I/O ports.  Look for and write down "IDE", "ATA" or "SATA" port numbers.
+Then, boot the SparrowOS CD and try all combinations.  (Sorry, it's too
+difficult for SparrowOS to figure-out port numbers, automatically.)
+
+The source code can also be found at the SparrowOS web site, 
+http://www.sparrowos.com but cannot be compiled outside SparrowOS because
+it's a nonstandard language, a dialect of C/C++ and asm.
