Hello PLUGers,
Here is ASULUGs official Install Fest Announcement. We have been
promoting on campus since last week and the event is this saturday April
12th. I am beginning to wonder if anyone will show up, its hard to say,
we didn't build any registration website or anything. We have lots of
volunteers for the event I think. But, if anyone is interested in
showing up to help do installs let me know, and let me know what Distros
you are comforatble with also.
Any last minute tips? Oh, we are currently debating Waivers. Did PLUG
use waivers in the past? If so did it turn people off? We have even
talked to our lawyers and whatnot, they of course say use them.
Austin

Linux Install-Fest
April 12th, 2003
10:00 am - 4:00 pm
BA L1-21 and L1-25
sponsored by ASULUG and UNUG
Installs - Software Demos - LAN games - Prizes
BRING YOUR COMPUTER SYSTEM FOR HELP OR JUST COME TO SEE LINUX
What to expect:
We will have different distributions of Linux available (RedHat,
Debian, Knoppix, SuSe, Mandrake). Our volunteers will help you install
Linux on your machine and they will be there to answer any questions you
might have about Linux. Afterward, you may bring your computer into the
next room for multi-player gaming. We also plan to have mini-demos, that
is to show different applications that you might enjoy once you start
using Linux.
What to bring:
Bring your machine, monitor, mouse, keyboard, and any hardware you want
configured for Linux (modems, sound cards, etc.) Ethernet cable will be
provided.
Location:
BA building is located just next to parking structure #1, so you won't
have to carry your hardware far. Parking in these structures is
unrestricted on Saturday. Both rooms have Ethernet access. BA-L-21 and
L1-25 are located in the basement.
Need for Volunteers:
If you would like to volunteer your time as an installer, please email
Monika Soroczynska at Monika.S@asu.edu

We would like to thank PLUG and SuSe for helping us make our
Install-fest better. We would also like to extend our gratitude to all
our volunteers, who provide their time, ideas, hardware and other
resources. Without them, there would be no Install-fest.
