Thanks Bhaskar,
I look into it.
I have used Knoppix, may still have a boot disk for this laptop around
somewhere.

What basic commands should I use to demonstrate VistA live? I have poked
around it just a bit. I did have it running on my PC at home, was never
able to connect with CPRS from a Windows PC.

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

| Go to http://sourceforge.net/projects/worldvista and download the latest
| OpenVistA VivA live CD (currently version 0.4).  Coupled with a 512MB
| USB drive (unfortunately, the database is a little too big to fit on a
| 256MB flash drive), it makes for a great VistA demo.  Boot it with the
| USB flash drive connected, then start a shell, and type:
|
|   sudo insmod usb-storage
|   sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1
|   sudo /usr/local/OpenVistA/vista
|
| The second command may vary, especially if the PC has multiple USB
| ports.  The third will pop up a dialog box to allow you to choose where
| to install the OpenVistA database and take you to a GTM> prompt from
| where you can type D ^XUP, D P^DI, etc.

| Knoppix 3.6 (http://knopper.net/knoppix/index-en.html).  Unfortunately,

| Another great Linux live CD to have is Damn Small Linux 0.8
| (http://damnsmalllinux.org).  Burned on a business card size 50MB CD-R,
| it is a great tool to carry around.  Remember those credit-card size
| Swiss army tools that people would carry around in their wallets till
| the enhanced security measures after 9/11 banned them from aircraft?
| DSL on a business card sized CD-R can go instead.
