hmmm. interesting point. Maybee we should have some install-fest's like
they do abroad, where we all bring systems together, and the guru's do a
kind of show-and-tell. You learn how to install on various hardware, and
you get your machine properly installed too. In general, there are very few
pieces of hardware that i have ever come across that i havent been able to
get to behave. A little bit of time and effort is all it takes to get any
hardware up and usable in linux, in my experience.
What do you say guys, how about an installfest?
We had planned for having an install fest when we last met in February at Five
Gardens. Maybe we should take it forward and actually have an install fest.
My query was not related to an install how-to but to know what hardware
is being used by the experts for their business. While everyone is
giving details of their own hardware, what I would like to know is the
motherboards used for customers' workstations. The reason is that for
self owned hardware, a lot of time is available to experiment and it is
purchased only once. There are many big players on this list, who
install 50, 100 or more systems at a stretch in big companies and the
hardware used will have to be one that requires minimum setup time. It
is this hardware detail that I am looking for, from the last six months.
I would highly appreciate if the big players can provide these details,
at least for 5 latest mobos used for their clients.
Thanks,
Rony.
