The FOSS4G Organising Committee have budget to distribute OSGeo-Live either on a DVD or USB.

Ideally we would have liked to distribute on a USB to all delegates however out of the 5 or so computers tested, we've had reports of at least 2 computers which can't boot from the USB. So we will distribute OSGeo-Live to all delegates on the well tested DVD version.

However, if we can get test results from enough people by first thing, Monday 16 August, an OSGeo-Live USB will be created and given to VIPs.

Here is the deal:

If we get:

7+ test results, from a variety of different computers, showing a reasonable number of computers will work with a USB

    we will hand out OSGeo-Live USBs to the (more forgiving) FOSS4G
presenters. Standard delegates will be given a Live-DVD.

    How to test a USB

    * Download and burn the USB as per:
      http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Live_GIS_Disc_Quick_Start_for_USB
    * Describe your test results here:

    * Optionally also tell us your experience on IRC or email:
