ubuntu-us-ne May 3rd

[Matt Micek]

Hello All,

Karin: I just installed Xubuntu on a real old system with about 32mb ram.  It took about 5 hours. It was grueling.  But in the end it worked!
The elderly lady lady loves it with for her card games too.

You need the alternative ISO to install. The Main live Cd does not work. The installation has to drop into a low memory mode. Which is rather cool. What does the OLPC have as far as hardware?

For the 3rd, I will be burning a few Ubunto Studio DVD's and Hardy Cd's too.

Matt

I think I can actually make this since my classes end May 2nd. Sorry I've
been so absent lately, this semester is kicking my butt.

I can bring a laptop with Xubuntu installed, or could try getting Edubuntu
installed. I also have an OLPC I could TRY to get Xubuntu running on, but no
promises. :)

I could burn some CD's/DVD's, too. Maybe 15 or so? Let me know.
