I'd really like to see that presentation, but I have to work. Are you going to make the presentation materials available on the PLUG site or your own site? -Michelle -----plug-discuss-admin@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us wrote: ----- To: plug-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us From: Austin Godber Sent by: plug-discuss-admin@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us Date: 09/11/2003 09:06AM Subject: East Side Meeting Correct me if I am wrong, but tonight is an EASTSIDE MEETING!!!!! Thats right folks, all you east siders can enjoy a tantilizing tale of intrigue ... Custom Knoppix!! Check the faq for time and location. Summary Knoppix is a Debian based Live-on-CD Linux distribution. Just pop it in a CD drive, reboot, and you have a fully functional Linux demo, rescue disk, backup server or Linux Workstation. Anyone can make a custom Knoppix CD to suit their needs. All you need is at least 6GB of hardrive space and about 1GB total RAM (physical + swap). A Knoppix disc can also be "branded" to promote your LUG, company or product. A simple branding would only modify the images and HTML on the original Knoppix disc. This presentation will address the issues involved in making a Custom Knoppix CD as well as bradning Knoppix. I will also release some helpful scripts that will aid in these tasks. In fact, to date, I have scripts that enable me to brand a Knoppix disc just by running three scripts on a Knoppix ISO (assuming you have the images prepared).

He has published work on 802.11b network security and continues to work in the field among other things. He graduated from ASU in 2000 with a BS in Physics where he received an award for research in nuclear physics. He has used Linux since 1995 (Linux Counter #29452) where he started off with Slackware, moved to Redhat and now has largely switched to Debian (via Knoppix), but is friend to all distributions, editors, progamming languages ... and of course ladies ;). Yes, all of the above is true and only slightly exaggerated. --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change you mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
