Braeside Presbyterian Knoppix Hdd Installfest.
I'm sold on Linux, and on Debian, and especially on Knoppix ! And it occurs to me that the perfect soil in which to propagate L-D-K is one congregation, then many, in the international organization of one, and then many, Christian denominations.
Which brings me to Braeside Presbyterian, in St-Albert, Alberta, to which I am an adherent.
I think we ought to host an installfest in the next month: everybody schlep their rigs (hopefully 3 dozen) into the church basement, break pizza together, and then flip the main circuitbreaker...oops, I mean, set Debian up on everybody's rig. Getting some nice people to provide the brains as guides/coaches to make this work is a big chore we'll get on soon as we know we have the demand.
The help I am asking from you kind folks is to share your favourite links to information to help my fellows decide if this is as good an idea as I say. Basically answering the questions "What is/ why would I want/ why should I use : Linux ?Debian ? Knoppix ? Also, anyone know if other churches have tried this ? What news from other Knx. installfests?
Thanks in advance,
Chada
