What should I document first?

I dropped in tonight to work on the Debian install on the classroom 
machines.  On all machines (but the instructor):
- installed a 686 kernel
- removed the 386 kernel
- created a bworks user with a "student reset" icon
- ran the "student reset" script

I left the instructor machine alone because I wasn't sure if Dave or 
Nate or anyone else tweaked the machine to work a certain way and I 
didn't want to break it as I had done in the past.

Yes.  Needs work:

Yes.  Needs work, too:

I will start this next Wednesday, December 5th, around 7:30pm.  Who's 
interested in learning this?
