[sf-lug] Ubuntu on a stick

[Christian Einfeldt]

Hi,

Darn, I should have attended the last SF-LUG meeting!  I just went out and
bought a USB drive and I am now attempting to put 10.04 on it.  I might need
that rubber Tux soon, if you were available to hook up!  Are you in the
city?  I will let you know soon about the status of my install attempts
