This Saturday, September 14, the Western Pennsylvania Linux Users Group will
be hosting an installfest in Carnegie Mellon University's Newel-Simon hall,
room 1507.
The party will get "kickin" as the young folks say around 10am and last until
5pm. Feel free to bring your box and get some help installing and
configuring Linux. If you have a particular distro in mind that you'd like
to have installed bring it on cd, or email the main list asking someone else
to bring it. If you are one of those particularly nerdy people who has a
huge collection of distros, bring them and help the cause!
Anyone is welcome to come and get some help installing and
configuring linux on their machines. There are a few requirements:
- It helps to bring your own power strip. We do have some to provide but not
enough for everyone
- Either a cdrom drive, or a network card and a floppy drive are required for
the installation.
- If you intend to do a network install, try to bring some ethernet cable.
- Try to bring a distro on cd. If everyone does this we will have plenty of
cd's to go around and plenty of varieties.
- Come prepared with some basic knowledge of your system.
- $5 for pizza!
Maps and directions should be available on the webpage, although it may be
going through renovation soon. If it dissapears, we will send out an email
with some directions.
See you all there!!
