dual boot

ok so she's in... quite a bit of configuring before it's all marvellous and it might just be a little too much for me but i'm splitting it into manageable tasks, like "how to configure my sound card to get sound", "how to configure the DHCPD"...

yes indeed ubuntu is what i'm talking about and although i'll still be hanging onto microsoft's coattails for a little while yet, (until ubuntu convince me they've got opensource versions as good as cubase or vegas - sound and video)... this whole experiment has something of the future about it...

my computing has been a few years behind the times for many years now... it wasn't until 3 years ago that i abandoned windows98... that's 7 years behind... XP had been around for a long time before i started wearing it... both my computers are several years old... the one now sporting a dualboot ubuntu/XP being the older, maybe 5-10 years old?

but this ubuntu 8.04 is the most up-to-date fella out there... and while with windows you wouldn't want to touch the most recent releases (vista? i don't think so) with opensource it all seems that much safer...

anyway, going to cycle over to the dawn project with J in a little while & i want to have a crack at the DHCPD...
