All excellent topics for presentations :).

These are some of the things I'd like to see happening with the
InstallFests. Project of the month type of thing.

One month we could do the persistent/install jumpdrive one month, then
installing on PS2/3[0] another month, then OpenWRT, then Asterisk, then
MythTV[1], then mame, then Virtual Box, etc.

Order is irrelevant other than requirements due to volunteers and interest.

Demos would also be great.

[0] We've got a PS3 GNU/Linux install slotted for June east side.

[1] We've got MythTV slotted for the June west side.

ciao,
