I have set up a system from the XBMC Live CD to install on the hard drive. There seems to be no plugins section and only two skins.
Is this installation limited to what is on the install disk or is there a way to install other skins and plugins?

It's possible though I haven't done this so i'm not sure how. I believe it's been mentioned on the forums before.

Yes, the default skins are stored in /usr/share/xbmc/skin/. You can put any skin in /home/xbmc/.xbmc/skin and xbmc will find it, the same goes for plugins and scripts.

also if you take the USB were you installed XBMC Live onto and plug it into another desktop system, Windows, linux or OSX you have a folder called dotXBMC which contains everything under ~/.xbmc
