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.

InstallFests are generally held from 11am - 5pm in Skiles 257.

Visitor Parking

Parking for the InstallFest is becoming more and more difficult, with the closure of several useful nearby parking lots. If you have a GT parking permit, the W01, E41, E44, and E40 (Klaus deck) lots are the closest to the Skiles building. If you do not have a GT parking permit, the best place to park is in the Area 2 visitor parking, next to the Student Center, or, if you only need to stop by for a moment, there are nearby parking meters.
