If you have the space, I would definitely include more than one architecture plus the source not just the binaries, you never know Edubuntu is a good idea too Codecs ; I would add the medibuntu repositories and a copy of the mstcorefonts + flash plugins and all the restricted stuff Is there "zero connectivity" or is it very unreliable ? I saw the case where International connectivity was bad but local one was ok. good luck -- David Tremblay IT analyst mob: 418-208-3631 jabber: ict4ngo skype : ict4ngo Blog : http://blog.ngowiki.net _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-ngo Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-ngo More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
