Comments anyone?I would suggest a custom remastered Ubuntu Live CD. There's a tool called Remastersys which appears to be able to take an image of a machine and create a live CD (or presumably DVD). I've used something similar in the past. Otherwise I believe it is possible to remaster the disc using other tools and remove the installation programs. Other than that, USB sticks (1GB ones are cheap) on the machines would be another option and also quicker than running off DVD/CD. It would just require the machines to be set to boot from USB (I'm guessing they are fairly new machines, and assuming you're still at the council by the next SFD day I guess speaking to Gareth in PC Support might be a good idea maybe?). RobAre you able to put one together for the event, will you have time to do so, if we have 1 then others can make a copy Paul
Well I had a bit of a play yesterday, ran out of hard drive space in the virtual machine. I'm sure it would be possible before the next SFD easily enough.
