wah! wah! kyaa configuration hai! this is perfect. for in this tushar
could then show how you need the intel 845 patch from intel's site if X
does not boot properly, the nvidia needs its own drivers as well, and a
dual-boot scenario would be shown with win98. how do we show the adsl
modem since the only true test is to connect successfully thru it?
perhaps just a configuration could be worked out.

great stuff this. do get your monitor as well, do ya have a cd burner or
something attached to it? how about anybody who has a digital camera? i
think kishori amonkar could bring his digital camera and we could show
how that works, straight outta the box.

any specific printer? else the printer at ashwin's place, we could
configure that and show, especially good if its a winprinter which has a
driver under cups / gimp-print.

if there's a cd /dvd player, we could also demo the usual am pee three
music, a video cd, and a dvd movie.

yeah, this sounds cool, all.

bravo! we could do with a demo of fedora. 
 Also I am not experinced with Debain , So I can give a demo based on
 fedora :) . Also I will not be able to arrange for a machine .Someone
 else has to arrange for it

any newbie could come forward with a machine and tushar volunteers to
install fedora for that newbie. the machine could have no OS on it, or
an OS that the newbie wants to reformat and replace, or an OS that the
newbie wants to preserve and convert the pc into a dual-boot. the choice
is yours.

who wishes to bring a pc for installation?

i have gnuwinII, i think raj also has a copy somewhere. could demo the
seven steps, if you have a dual-boot machine with win and lin

tushar could then do a demo of a live installation on a newbie's
machine, of fedora. newbie must contact tushar and give details of
machine prior to meet.

I have a question.. How important is it to bring your whole PC for
installation.. A friend of mine once took his harddisk to some other
guy's place, got Linux installed on it and then put it back in his own
PC. I don't remember the specifics, but the procedure bombed.. (n he now
uses Linux thru a Knoppix (Lify) CD.)

I understand that the correct device drivers won't get installed, but
they can be replaced once the disk is on the correct PC.. Right?

Normally this should work. I have done it a few times. The trusty kudzu 
automatically discovers any device changes.

right, but then that's not a newbie who can do that!
:-)

recommend: get your whole pc. heck! if you can get the printer as well,
to learn how to configure the printer, so much the better.

have a modem? bring that too if you wish.

hard-disk installs work if the pc is *identical*. i know vipul had
identical pcs at his site, so he installed a complex bunch of Oses on
one pc, then just did a blind disk to disk copy for all other hard disks
on other pcs in less than 10 minutes each.

Dear Tushar,
Thanks for your help. I want a volunteer for first step to Samadhi. Can you 
get a copy of GNuIIWin and demonstrate it?
I've got a dual-boot Athlon with Win XP and RH 8.0. Sorry, no fedora :-). 
You'll have to work on that. Reply me offline if you would like to accept 
this. If not, we'll consider some other form of help.
