Your mission should you wish to accept it ........There is a ship leaving Felixstowe with a 20ft container pack full of second hand computers bound for the Cameroon. I have pledged to find 30 units (system units, keyboards, mouse and monitor) in 30 days time .... Yes Im mad and I should know better but this is an opportunity to put Linux on the map (at least in Kumbo Cameroon).
So cut to the chase Tom ..... I need 2 servers that are capable of supporting 14 X-terminals each, so that 2 complete sets (30 units in all) can be sent to Kumbo and deployed in 2 very lucky schools. Yes some schools will miss out, but at least there will be a lottery instead on nothing.
Its as simple as that.... 2 servers is all I'm asking preferable at least 1Ghz processor / 1 Gbyte memory and some decent disk space.
The ship will sail on the 14 November with or without the pledged computers.If I get the two servers it makes my life easier because I will configure K12LTSP and getting the terminals ready will be easy. If I dont get the servers I will have to slave away for the next 30 days installing debian on each one individually (Yuck (not debian just the thought of installing so may boxes)).
So Please Please Please Please Please (im on my knees right now) Please Please Please Please help if you can.
Thankyou Tom. (the older). -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG Mail majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with "unsubscribe list" in the message body to unsubscribe. FAQ: www.dcglug.org.uk/linux_adm/list-faq.html
