| cje_ | Hi, I would like to install Xubuntu to a CD, but my CDs are only 700 MB, and Xubuntu is 715 MB of ISO. What should I do? | 05:45 |
| holstein | cje_: USB stick, or dvd | 05:54 |
| cje_ | holstein, thx, no DVD on the machine, and I tried USB, but my Dell Dimension 4400 wouldn't boot from USB | 05:56 |
| holstein | cje_: i use plop to boot USB sticks on legacy gear | 05:57 |
| holstein | http://www.plop.at/en/bootmanager/index.html | 05:57 |
| cje_ | holstein, I set up the BIOS to boot from 5 different sources, with the hard drive being the last, and the "removable dev" being the first | 05:59 |
| holstein | cje_: you can make a bootable cd with plop that boots and allows you to boot the USB stick.. or you can use the minimal iso's to install minimal ubuntu and add what you like | 05:59 |
| holstein | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 05:59 |
| cje_ | holstein, Wow, thanks. | 06:00 |
| holstein | cje_: you have to create the plop iso.. here is mine https://dl.dropbox.com/u/1172535/temp/plopboot.iso ,not that i would trust every iso that is linked on the IRC | 06:02 |
| cje_ | holstein, thx for that ISO. | 06:03 |
| cje_ | holstein, how does the ISO work? Does it bring up a GUI, or is it all terminal stuff? | 06:04 |
| holstein | cje_: a text screen *is* a GUI | 06:04 |
| holstein | cje_: its has some animations though.. its slick, and does what you want | 06:04 |
| holstein | cje_: it looks like this... it'll fit on a CD and boot a USB stick on your hardware | 06:04 |
| holstein | cje_: try it, and if you dont like it, i'll give you a refund | 06:05 |
| cje_ | lol ! | 06:05 |
| cje_ | holstein, I am going to bring up xchat on my notebook now so I can chat with you while I do it. | 06:06 |
| cje_ | holstein, I ran out of CDs. Is it possible to put that plop iso on a 3.5 floppy disk? | 06:31 |
| hmsck | hello, how can i change my wireless from *G mode to *B mode please? | 06:41 |
| cje__ | holstein, I tried rebooting with that plop iso CD in my CD ROM, didn't boot | 06:57 |

In addition to the IEP I'm having, they wanted a private demonstration of Linux, and it's advantages over Windows, and rationale to migrate their 5,000+ computers to the system. What should I show them, and what should I pitch as my argument. | 13:12 |
