I knew about this list but could not find it published anywhere so I asked Wesley to send it here. Would it be useful to put it on the Clug page? Maybe you are familiar with the history of this list, but for those who are not, from ages back when CLUG used to have a real world base at St. Albans Community Centre, and downloading gigabytes was expensive, Linux enthusiasts used to bring Linux disk images to be stored on the computers there for everyone interested to bring his or her own CD or DVD to burn the desired distro. The archive has survived the time kindly cared for by Wesley. Today the Fedora distribution was updated with the latest release, Fedora 12. HTH, Adrian

linux isos on Caledonian at St Albans
Hi. In reply to Adrian's request for a list of the isos available on the Linux box in the St Albans community centre, here is the list of the files and directories. As you can see, in some areas it's definitely outdated. I've got the latest Ubuntu - I'll update the Ubuntu directory next week. Share and enjoy!

Yes, you can. That's my get-out-of-jail card. I'll do the symlink, synch up the HDDs, then point Unison at the new mount point and resynch, confident that there are no differences. This is important, as a full synch from scratch takes many, many hours. Shame though. I was kind-of hoping to find out how Gnome/Hal/whatever decide where to mount things.
