Have you been to an InstallFest recently?
Nowadays, since Linux is so easy to install, the InstallFest customers
seem to be about 20% new installations, and 80% people who have run
into problems after installation. Sometimes fairly exotic and
puzzling problems.
I suppose it would have been a good thing to keep a record of exotic
problems and their solutions. Or non-solutions sometimes.
