[aklug] Re: InstallFest

Howdy! I'll chime in on this. Sounds like fun to me. I should be able to get
to whereever this fun will be.
I'll bring along Linux Mint, but I don't have anything cool like a full
mirror. With any luck, now that the Ibex is loose the v6 of Mint will be
together in time for this. Will give me an excuse to update my laptop to a
fresher version and maybe try something else out on one of the other
partitions.

I can bring a WR54G that has been burned with dd-wrt if we want a little
wireless activity. Always fun to test connectivity both wired and wireless.
