Hello group:

This is the short story:
I live in Georgia (see http://hangglide.com/ :) and my mother in law lives
in Chandler.

I set up for her a Linux computer that may have a hardware problem.

She has some limitations that prevent her from reaching the back of the
computer and plugging and unplugging cables.

I called the "Geek Squad" for help and they are more than willing to bill me
$250 to get there and tell me if they can boot (or not) the computer from a
CD.

I need someone to visit her, diagnosis whether we have a hardware problem
and if not, boot the machine with an Ubuntu CD (or whatever) so I can SSH
into and fix any other issue.
I'll be more than willing to return the favor with flight instruction,
anything from a hang glider to a twin engine... :)
Thanks!
Enrique A. Troconis

PS: I can also help anyone with some "geeky" Linux stuff...
