Okay, Campers and Kiddies!  INSTALL FEST - Get your Geek ON!



BRING Your USB 2.0 JumpDrives to the PLUG LINUX INSTALL FEST and build
your own persistent USB bootable thumbdrive to use on any Windows
System!  

Reference:  http://www.pendrivelinux.com/2007/01/25/usb-x-ubuntu-610/



I will be "manning" <ahem!> the Installfest this Saturday while Alexander is out of town!



EQUIPMENT AVAILABLE:



I bring and setup a wireless network.  And for those who have only
ethernet, and need wifi network card assistance there will be a
LinkSys, a Netgear Pro VPN Wifi Router, a hub, 3 PCMCIA network cards
[Cisco, LinkSys and Netgear] , ethernet cables for test and build
purposes.  



For research my Dell Latitude Pentium II Laptop will be available using
Ubuntu ppp kernel hack for USB EDVO Wireless Sprint Card.



I will also have an external USB CDROM, which can be used for Knoppix
dd type installation imaging (across the network or via NFS mount to
another machine) with a DVD drive or existing image.



Be sure to download and burn your Linux installation media after checking/researching equipment compatibility in advance!
