I can give some infos about this: I write a mail to LL and I have requested a normal PC with TFT-Monitor (normal office pc). LL will make a backup from the whole disk and we can fdisk/install/... the pc. On the first day Alexander must install the pc with debian. Alexander should have some CDs with debian and install this. I have requested a internet connection too. Last time we have a dsl like connection via a dsl router. (We don't need make this dsl setup.) After the install he can upgrade to testing/sid etc. via net. Please Alexander don't make a full install. If you had X and net working, you can start your demos. some thoughts: - don't install any package on the pc with the installation. If someone ask 'have you XXX?', say: 'not jet', type apt-cache search, apt-get install and show the request package/programm. - Don't use KDE. (KDE is not evil, but the visitors see this on _any_ linux like booth.) You can install it, you can start a second X server with KDE running, and show it on request. But don't use it with your normal demo. - if you don't know some thing, say it. (we all not a expert in all tasks) But maybe you can search with the visitor in the internet for the answer of his question. Also you can use the IRC-Net for this 'hot questions'. Use the debian community! - If you can, show things on request. Like building debian package, config things, installing packages, apt pinning. - Importent: talk about free software! Without this freedom, this all is not possible. Educate the visitors about this importent fact. > > And by the way, I can bring 80 gb. of Debian mirror on a harddrive if > > needed.
