A month with Ubuntu

Well, it’s the 31st, and that means it’s just about time to get started with the month with Linux. I’ve most of the day set aside for backing stuff up and getting Ubuntu up and running, and Wednesday should mark the first day of bi-weekly updates. As an aside, apparently bi-weekly can mean both twice a week and once every two weeks. Bizarre, no? Anyway, in this case it means twice a week.

I should also say that when I announced this idea a month or so ago I fully intended to have large swathes of it written, or at least researched, before February rolled around. Life being as it is, however, that didn’t happen, so about all I’ve done so far is faff around briefly with booting Uibuntu off a CD and, separately, discover that apparently I’m going to have some sort of trouble with disk formatting, although I’m not too sure yet what form that’ll take. The somewhat positive side-effect of this is that you’ll be getting everything hot off the press, and any new updates and whatnot should be in date when you read this.

That’s it from me today, brace for Wedneday.
