  • Open Solaris (Riham iTi)
  • Xen virtulization
  • Network/Server monitoring applications(Nagios, xymon).
  • VOIP (where is wolfi, btw?).
  • Kernel walkthrough.
  • How to write a device driver (general idea).

General Ideas:

  • Gaming box, showing some games running on linux.
  • A box to install ubnutu on Flash disks.
  • We should have an ISO library, just in case anyone needed something other than ubuntu.
  • Remaster an ubuntu ISO with something like:
    • EGLug logo somewhere
    • Firefox with flash and java and goes to eglug.org.
    • xchat preconfigured to access #eglug@freenode.net
    • EGLug wallpaper.
    • Music/movies codecs.
    • Fonts.
    • Some cool apps.
    • Updates
    • What else ?
  • A server install? Install GNU/Linux as a desktop AND as a server? We should have more distro's if we are going with this.
  • Local server for DNS/DHCP, ISO hosting and repository mirror.
  • Be prepared for nasty hardware problems especially if we are expecting a lot of laptop installations. I recommend we do some research on this and get the required resources before the fest.
  • have a couple of rescue CD's and Windows(original) CD just in case something gets b0rked!
  • VMware/Vbox disk images ready with GNU/Linux.

Tasks Done

  • Amr Essam :

" I got the name of the one who we can contact about the feast , Prof. Medhat Shawky ,Dean of the Faculty of Engineering in Pharous. I was told that this man is very helpful and supports things like that "

" I couldn't get a phone number for Prof Medhat Shawqy "

  • Ghada Zakaria :

" I've talked to my contact their and he said it will be more suitable to have the feast in the Academy in Abo2er.. If this suits us .. he'll give me who exactly we can contact .. Otherwise.. if we didnt find another place .. we can talk to this same person about having the feast in Miamy .. but that will be really hard .. "

  • Michael and Ahmad:

"We got the cheapest price which is L.E. 600, it's Al Massa Hall. We have the phone number to call them as soon as given the green light"

For the "ISO Library" I have the following ISOs:

Also, I have RHEL 5.3 and CentOS 5.2 CDs which linatrix gave me, I can make ISOs from them if you want too.

Extend's picture

your RHEL is original one?

your RHEL is original one? and if, we don't need it cause you can't copy it to people, pirated materials are not allowed.

DesertFox's picture

no keys supplied with it,

no keys supplied with it, you can skip and use the trial version when it asks about keys 30 days are given, after that the system keeps running but without updates... it is still Linux with GPL, so you can't call it pirated

MSameer's picture

We are not allowed to

We are not allowed to distribute RHEL (It's a crappy distro anywa).

CentOS is crap too.

This is an installfest and we are building an ISO library! so I guess we don't need a religious distro war, you are such a fanatic :D

MSameer's picture

I didn't ask you to not

I didn't ask you to not distribute it!

I only said that we are not allowed to distribute RHEL and stated my personal opinion.

Cheers,
