In operational mode, the command "show" itself is incomplete hence
you get the above error. If you press <TAB> or '?' after a command,
you may be able to see the list of sub-commands that can be used.
In general, <TAB> is pretty useful for completing a partial command,
and for listing the sub-commands.

If you are going to use the LiveCD, I believe by default it comes
with minimalistic configuration (if any) which doesn't include
PIM-SM. Hence, you would have to add your own PIM-SM XORP
configuration. To do so you can use the xorpsh configuration
mode. Alternatively, you can just configure one of the network
interfaces, and then you can use it to download a config file you
have created previously and stored on some other machine.
In both cases, you can use the following Web page for info how to
configure XORP:
