	Which distro would you want burned? While some of us would
prefer to do
something like PCLinuxOS, the people who are doing the
install may have
something different in mind.  If Knoppix 5.0.1 worked better
on my computers, I
probably wouldn't even ask.  I would assume that Kbuntu, or
something on that
order, would be more to your liking?   ---Jim

I was thinking some FC5 and some OpenSUSE.  I think I have
some Ubuntu 
still.  Knopix would be nice as well.  I think if you're
planning on 
coming, bring whatever you feel comfortable with 'cause
you'll end up 
installing it on the system.

	Cesar, I will bring the latest Knoppix 5.0.1., I think
I'll bring the
disclaimer that is given when it's downloaded too.   I never
had a Linux
install my Windows installation, but then I never tried it
with Windows XP on
the same hard-drive either.  I think all I should bring is
live CD's & DVD's.
People should have an inkling if it's going to work on
their computers.  I
won't touch a desktop by the way. Knoppix ALMOST worked on
my old Dell Inspiron
 2500, but not well enough.  I guess you can get SuSE or
Ubuntu to work on
laptops, but it's more work than I'm going to. You should
see some PClinuxOS,
which I think is about the best for people who are looking
for ways to have an
alternative to Windows, the latest SimplyMEPIS DVD, and
Knoppix.  However, if I
bring SuSE at all, it might be 10.0.  10.1 has problems
installing, and people
can just do an online upgrade. I like SuSE, use it every
day, one version or
another, but there's no use for a beginner to get turned
off on SuSE right at
the beginning.  ---Jim
