The Linux Install Podcast
This week I install Ubuntu Feisty Fawn. I will keep the episode as accessible to new users as possible, meaning I will forgo dealing with advanced issues and just cover the basic installation.

I’ll also take a look at netpkg, the zenwalk package manager. This will wind up my look at zenwalk. Next week will be a newbie friendly episode. I’ll cover the installation of ubuntu feisty fawn, with step by step instructions for new users.

Zenwalk installs from 1 cd and uses xfce for it’s default desktop environment. I install the main system, add zenwalk to the grub menu, get networking set up with networkconfig, and fix a buggy environment by rebooting ;-). Catch another error filled episode of the lip.

After that I set up printing with Cups over a printer server. I then install alsa, and fail to install Automatix2. In lieu of installing Automatix2 I install flash and Java directly and that finishes up our look at Debian.
Next week:
Zenwalk 4.6.1

My name is Ed LaBonte and I’ll be taking over for Serge. The first episode (#29) is up and ready for download. This has been a learning experience and that’s reflected in this episode. It’s a bit rough around the edges, but I wanted to get something out after the long delay. I cover Debian Etch, the installation of the basic system using a minimalist method with the netinstall installation cd. Next I install X.org, gnome, and Iceweasel. The format for the podcast is still up in the air and I hope that I can get feedback from listeners to help me make this podcast useful to the community.
I want to thank Serge for letting me use his website and storage space for putting out this podcast.
