The other day I was pleased and surprised to discover that Marcelo
Salvador had published a
video on
Youtube showing how to install the standalone Debian Edu /
Skolelinux profile. This is the profile intended for use at home or
on laptops that should not be integrated into the provided network
services (no central home directory, no Kerberos / LDAP directory etc,
in other word a single user machine). The result is 11 minutes long,
and show some user applications (seem to be rather randomly picked).
Missed a few of my favorites like celestia, planets and chromium
showing the Zygote
Body 3D model of the human body, but I guess he did not know about
those or find other programs more interesting. :) And the video do not
show the advantages I believe is one of the most valuable featuers in
Debian Edu, its central school server making it possible to run
hundreds of computers without hard drives by installing one central
LTSP server.
Anyway, check out the video, embedded below and linked to above:
Are there other nice videos demonstrating Skolelinux? Please let
me know. :)
