[CSC 315] Friday Afternoon

[Andrew J. Pounds]

Students -- for those of you wanting to build a linux bootable flash drive:

I will be in my office in Willet (room 105) after 1:30 today.  It would 
be great if one of two folks could come at that time to get things 
started.  Depending on the network speeds and the speed of your 
computer/flash drive the process could take anywhere from 30 minutes to 
three hours.   I am fine if you want to get things started and then 
leave them to continue the install why you go do other things.  I will 
need to leave campus around 6 pm -- so everything needs to be done by then.

Your laptop needs to have a CDROM drive and the BIOS will have to be 
configured to boot first from the CD and then from the USB stick.

You need to bring a flash drive that is at least 8 GB in size.
