The Kingston (Ontario, CANADA) Linux Users Group (KLUG) is going to be
running Kingston's first Linux Installfest on Saturday, June 5th, 1999.
The event in being hosted by Comtech Services of 720 Progress Avenue at
thier location. Doors will open at 10:00AM.

Members of the KLUG will be on hand to install the Linux Operating
System on your Personal Computers free-of-charge. If you would like to
have Linux installed but you don't want to try the installation
yourself, this is your chance to have it installed by experienced Linux
users.

We will be installing the Linux-Mandrake 5.3 distribution which combines
the ease of use, installation and management of RedHat Linux 5.2 with
the powerful and intuitive K Desktop Environment.

You will be required to register in advance by contacting myself by
email or by phone at (613) 384-4068 (after 6:00PM) or if you are in the
Brockville area, contact Doug Mitton at (613) 354-3716 (again evenings
only) or by email at dmitton@cybertap.com.

During the registration we will be asking you for information about your
PC Hardware so we know what to expect. It is strongly suggested that you
bring in your _complete_ system. Though ComTech will have extra parts
(monitors, keyboards, etc) available, it is much easier for us to give
you a fully functional system if you bring in your entire system (CPU,
monitor, keyboard, mouse, external peripherals). The more of your system
that you bring in, the more likely everything will work correctly when
you get home.

Each complete installation can take some time (~3hrs including
pre-processing, installation of the OS, configuration, installation of
extra applications, verification, etc) so please be prepared to stick
around. There will be members available to demonstrate various Linux
concepts and to tutor you on the basics while you wait.

You will also be required to sign a waiver before we begin installation.
All the KLUG members who will be performing the installations are very
experienced Linux users and we do not expect to run into any problems
but they are all volunteers and as such they cannot be held accountable
if something does go wrong.

For more information about the KLUG, please visit our website's
temporary location at http://signals.rmc.ca/klug/. The site will be
moved to www.klug.on.ca in the near future.
