Jon Stanley - on - Rolling Your Own Linux With Fedora Please join us for possibly the last NYLUG meeting any time soon*, and pizza, on Wednesday, April 15th, 2009 at 6:30 PM. Have you ever wanted to make your own custom remix of Linux that suits *your* needs, rather what someone else decided your needs might be? It's easier to do this with Fedora Linux than you probably think. First, we'll talk about why you might want to roll your own customized distribution of Linux, and then all of the the Open Source tools you'll use to do this with Fedora, (livecd-creator, pungi), and which tool to choose. Then we'll actually perform the process for a livecd, and use the USB creation tools to put that on a USB stick, and then give away that USB stick to a lucky audience member :) Then, courtesy of Fedora, there will be pizza! Jon will also have assorted Fedora swag (stickers, some buttons, a few shirts, media, etc). About Jon Stanley: Jon Stanley is a NYLUG member, and a Fedora Ambassador, and can be found at FUDcons, LUG meetings, and in various channels on IRC, and is on the Fedora Engineering Steering Committee. His blog can be seen here or on Planet NYLUG. Meeting Location: Please note that this meeting will be held at IBM, 590 Madison Ave, 12th floor, corner of 57th Street, and not at Google. This is the building with the IBM logo on the front of the building. Map: http://nylug.org/mapofibm Books!!! Our friends at Prentice-Hall kindly provide us with review copies of various new titles.
