To: LUG at listserv.uic.edu

Hello all --

Just a reminder that tomorrow is this semester's Linux Install Fest! You
can view the schedule here: "http://lug.cs.uic.edu/install/". Thank you
Samir for setting up our diverse array of speakers!

Lunch will be pizza from Pompei!

So lug your computer to SEL 2262 and let's install some *nix. :)

We will also have a variety of fund-raisers. There will be some stuffed
Tux penguins up for sale or auction, maybe FreeBSD daemons, as well as
some buttons with Tux sitting pretty. There is a chance the buttons will
not come in on time, but they will still be available for pre-order if
you're interested.

We will also have an "Install A Bootable Linux on a USB" workshop, where
we will go through making your own bootable Linux from USB. You may bring
your own USB, or available for purchase will be 2gb USB drives. This is a
fund-raiser, so we ask that you please support us. :)

Also, we are asking you to please bring any unwanted, or unused PC parts.
We are going to attempt to build a machine from all of the parts people
have brought in and possibly auction off this newly built machine. The
parts you bring in don't have to be fancy... 8 bit video cards, generic
sound cards, Pentium II or III processors with motherboards. I will be
bringing in some SDRAM and a soundcard, and maybe a few other things I can
scrounge up. I bet we can make a nice server out of what people bring in.
Please donate any unused parts, and recycle! :)

If you have any questions, please visit http://lug.cs.uic.edu/install/ or
email me directly. I hope to see you all there tomorrow!!!

Jen
