Abstract: As with a lot of tasks, installing a Linux system can be pretty easy, once you know what you're doing. Stubbing your toes on all the gotchas along the way can be very frustrating. In this session, we'll be talking about the things you need to know and consider before you get started, including:
  • Deciding which architecture might be best for the applications you will be running
  • Laying out the system structure
  • Networking requirements for installation
  • Preparing the installation media
And more.
