Sorry to change the subject but I am having troubles posting to PLUG. I keep getting a bad address.

CentOS on a USB Keyboard Box - Next Install-Fest

A friend has an HP (I think HP) box, with a USB keyboard, which came with some flavour of Windows. It got a virus and he wiped the drive only to find that in order to reload the OS, he needs the USB keyboard which is not available to install the OS until the OS is installed.

I have been touting Linux for many years and he is interested. When is the next Install-fest? Can CentOS be installed given the USB keyboard? If so, what all should he bring?

TIA

That's weird that the path info was in the message. I did an "edit as new" on a message from last month and that file was already attached... and that file was moved to another computer weeks ago, so it couldn't have grabbed it from the file system... and come to think of it I just sent it from a completely different computer to boot. Oh well...

Desert Breeze Substation
251 North Desert Breeze Blvd
Chandler, AZ

The Desert Breeze Substation is on Chandler Blvd and Desert Breeze
Blvd, which is half way between McClintock and Rural. It is very
close to both the south 202 and 101 freeways. Public transportation
is available into the late hours.

To get to the room that we meet, just enter the door that faces
Desert Breeze and make your first left, you can't miss it, as it's
the only place to go.
