- | ====== Resurrected Workshops ====== | ||
- | ===== Intro ===== | ||
- | At the social Meeting on 3rd May 2006, we discussed the options for a Workshop Meeting. | ||
- | |||
- | We had a number of people express their support on the Mailing List with several suggestions made. The consensus on the list out of 19 people was that most preferred a weekend, out of those a Sunday came up most often. | ||
- | |||
- | ===== Proposal ===== | ||
- | |||
- | So here is what we think could work well: | ||
- | - At the first meeting, everyone who can bring a box installs VMWare. | ||
- | - We then begin the process of building Linux from Scratch inside the virtual machine. | ||
- | - At the end of the session, we save the image so far. | ||
- | |||
- | Using VMWare will allow us to carry on where we left off at subsequent meetings, thus solving the biggest obstacle to creating a Linux from Scratch installation; | ||
- | |||
- | Talking of long compile times, we will then have some spare time for chatting/ | ||
- | |||
