Where: MIT Building E-51, Room 061
       2 Amherst St, Cambridge
        Plenty of parking in front of the building
        

What you need to bring: Your computer, monitor, power strips and your
Linux distributions. We do have copies of some distributions.
In general we have expertise with most distros, but if you need special
expertise, please email the BLU discussion list in advance.

COST: It's free! However, we DO have expenses, and contributions are
welcome. Please consider contributing $25 per machine.

Our volunteers will help you to install Linux on your own system.  While
Linux runs on most systems, some systems do have configurations and
hardware that may not be supported. Please consult the following web
pages for hardware compatibility. While we prefer you to bring your own
distros, our volunteers will normally have

 Linux.ORG: http://www.linux.org/hardware/index.html
 Hardware HOWTO: http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/Hardware-HOWTO.html
 Linux Frequently Asked Questions: http://www.linuxdoc.org/

Generally our volunteers have sets of the latest Fedora, SuSE and
Ubuntu distributions:
   * Fedora - http://fedora.redhat.com (Fedora 9)
   * Open SuSE - http://opensuse.org (OpenSuSE 11.0)
   * Ubuntu - http://www.ubuntu.com  (Hardy Herron 8.04)
   * Debian - http://www.debian.org/
We will also be installing VirtualBox on some systems.


Please refer to the BLU website (http://www.blu.org) for further
information and directions. Parking is available in front of the
building on Amherst St. Enter the building, and take the elevator to
your left down 1 floor. Room 061 is opposite the elevator.
