## General Info
|
|
|
|
LUG hosts a quarterly installfest on Friday of 2nd week. Attendees will be
|
|
provided a USB drive and guide to dual booting their computers with Linux (most
|
|
likely Debian or Arch Linux). However, attendees are welcome to bring their own
|
|
flash drives and install any distro of their choice as well. Or if attendants do
|
|
not feel comfortable with the possibility of losing their data, they can set up
|
|
a Virtual Machine instead.
|
|
|
|
The officers will also be doing a show-and-tell of their own obscure hardware
|
|
which they have installed Linux on.
|
|
|
|
At the end, we'll have a SuperTuxKart LAN party with our freshly installed Linux
|
|
machines.

|
## Note on M1 and M2 Macs
|
|
|
|
Due to their custom Apple silicon, the only Linux distro which works on M1/M2/M3
|
|
Macs is the experimental Asahi Linux. You also have the option of setting up a
|
|
Virtual Machine to run Linux so feel free to come and chat with us!
