[Discuss] LINUX SIG Saturday December 6th

[Murray Strome]

     As discussed at previous SIG meetings, I will be bringing an old PC 
with some new HDs (I plan to include an old, small IDE Drive for any 
installation). I plan to install four 3TB 7200rpm SATA drives, but will 
not do any formatting of them. I have installed Fedora LXDE on a small 
IDE hard drive. I only have 2G RAM and a 16G IDE HD with the Fedora 
installation. Although the CD/DVD reader/writer is supposed to be DVD 
and CD capable, I was only able to load Live-CDs and installation CDs 
(not DVDs). IU will bring a small monitor, keyboard and mouse as well as 
an Ethernet cable.

I chose the Fedora LXDE because of the many small installations that I 
tried, this is the only one that seemed to work.

The idea is to build a network disk array for backup, or whatever. Cy 
suggested that he would help with this.  If I need anything else in 
advance, I am hoping that Cy will let me know.
