Re: [Server-devel] Moving toward headless install on trimslice
How does the os get onto the trimslice? How do you sudo if the only known user is not a sudoer?

[Server-devel] Moving on
Friends, You may already have heard the news, but I wanted to take a moment to let you know that I have just concluded my tenure as Engineering Manager at One Laptop per Child Australia. It's been a rewarding three and a half years. I joined the organisation as its first technical resource and established the Engineering Department. We've created some innovative solutions, and most importantly it has all been tied closely into a holistic educational solution. I'm pleased to say that we've made a difference to the lives of thousands of children. This was not a proprietary effort - far from it. The community has been the backbone of everything we have achieved, and I owe a debt of gratitude to you all. Walter Bender will be taking over many of my responsibilities, so our community roots will certainly continue. I'm not sure what adventure lies next for me, but I hope to be able to make a positive contribution to the world in whatever I do. I'll be sticking around on the lists as a lurker. My srid...@laptop.org.au address will likely stop working in the near future, but you can continue to reach me personally: e-mail: srid...@dhanapalan.com LinkedIn: http://au.linkedin.com/in/sridhard All the best, Sridhar ___ Server-devel mailing list Server-devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/server-devel
