If anyone's planning to donate computers (someone mentioned it at the last Saturday Workshop) I've just set up three here. In the process of setting them up nicely with codecs, flash, educational software etc I've created a nice 'standard image' and a script to install it via the network and modify the fstab and grub appropriately so I can go from a zero-wiped drive to a well configured working machine ready to donate in five or ten minutes. If anyone else wants a copy of my script and tar file just give me a call or an email.

Got rid of my stock of old computers at eday, but that must have been almost a year ago now...
