I think this is pretty high on the list of things that plug aught to do, I just haven't felt up to attempting to organize it. I'd be happy to show up with my stuff. I know when I installed linux the 1st time, I was not alone. 2 good friends of mine came over w/ a Yggdrasil Linux (yes, that's a distribution) CD, a cdrom drive, and a cdrom drive controller (yes, that was necessary back then). I'd bought a hard drive for the occasion, and we did horrible things to my stepdad's computer, but in the end, we were victorious. Although it took me the next year to get X to work. Ugh. Heh, maybe that's why I'm so fond of the command line. So I kind of feel like I should pass on the favor, you know ? Actually, if anybody's loosing their mind & desparate, email me, you could come over to my house (in northeast philly) & I could try to help you out. If I ever get my house, specifically my basement, rewired, it might actually be an appropriate place for installfests. I dunno. Hey, how do you say installfest in german ? ___________________ www.ChaosReigns.com ______________________________________________________________________ Philadelphia Linux Users Group - http://plug.nothinbut.net Announcements - http://lists.nothinbut.net/mail/listinfo/plug-announce General Discussion - http://lists.nothinbut.net/mail/listinfo/plug
