Hi All,

Well today I ran my first welcome to Linux lesson.  I have 14 students who 
have decided to join the group which will meet at Lunch every second Friday 
and some students plan to come back after school for an hour for further play.

I plan to have Red Hat, Lycoris, Mandrake 8.0 or Libranet 2.0 running on 
different machines (although Red Hat 7.1 won't install on the 3 Gb Hard 
drive, when it transfers the install image it claims there is not enough 
space, even though the install is slightly over 1 GB).  I also have one of 
the Celeron 300s running BeOS which transforms the speed of the 
machine.  (I know it is not Linux but an Open source version is due for 
release soon).

So hopefully at Cabramatta High we may get some new Linux users, I will 
also tell them about SLUG and Tux for Teens.

Now I can't wait to for the kids to see Red Hat 8.0, what Jeff demonstrated 
on last Friday was impressive.

Just to note I had to turn away about 5 kids until next term so the 
interest certainly is there.

All the best
Paul
