Knoppix
James Carter
Knoppix is a version of Linux, based on Debian, which runs 'live'
from a CD without needing to install anything on your disk. It
is fairly good at hardware detection, particularly sound cards.
Because the plain Debian distribution is weak in this, the Knoppix
distribution is very useful. It can also function as a recovery
system for NT machines.
19 October 2002, 14:00, usual place.
Installfest
We'll try to have recent versions of as many Linux distributions
as possible, certainly including S.u.S.E 8.0 (and perhaps 8.1 if
it's out) and Debian woody. I hope we'll have the latest version
of FreeBSD and (if you have networking on your machine) OpenBSD
or NetBSD. I understand very recent versions of Mandrake
and even Red Hat will also be available.
