From Computer Science Community
|
Fall 2008 Event Completed: We had a decent turn-out (especially for day-before advertising)—at least 11 non-NMUUUG people along with 8 NMUUUG members. (Actual number of attendees may have been higher.) Please contact the NMU Unix User Group concerning future events or any related queries.
[edit] What is the Linux Install Fest?
The primary focus of this event is the installation of Ubuntu Linux. However, we won't limit ourselves to just that; all *nix distributions are welcome!
[edit] When and where?
- Date: Tuesday, August 26, 2008
- Time: 5-9 PM
- Place: New Science Facility, Room 1205
[edit] FAQ
- Will I have to remove Windows?
Nope! Linux works quite well along with other operating systems such as Windows. - Should I backup my data?
Yes! It's strongly recommended that you backup your data; we will be able to do a backup at the event if you are not able to do so beforehand. - What should I bring?
Your computer! If you have a desktop system, it's recommended that you bring along your keyboard, mouse, and display. However, we will be able to provide a limited supply keyboards, mice and displays for use at the fest if it's awkward to bring your own.
