Installfests

Starting in fall semester of 1999, LUG@GT has organized a number of Linux InstallFests. InstallFests are held periodically, aiming at four or five a year.

During a Linux InstallFest, students and faculty interested in the Linux operating system can bring their systems in for LUG@GT members to install Linux and provide a quick crash-course in using it and where to find more information. The original operating system is preserved, so that no data is lost during the installation, and the user is kept informed about what is happening at every step in the process. This way, people who are interested in the Linux operating system, but are unsure of where to start, can get introduced to Linux in a friendly and data-safe environment.

Visitors to the InstallFest can also ask the number of LUG@GT representatives any number of questions they may have regarding their decision to install Linux, their current Linux installation, or about Linux in general.
