Ubuntu Feisty Fawn Repository on DVD

This is a continuity from my previous post Get Ubuntu Repositories on DVD.

Now you can get Ubuntu Feisty Fawn Repository DVD images from [ftp:].

While some might argue that putting the whole Ubuntu repository on DVD is unnecessary, having it is nice especially when you need to install software packages in places where a high-speed internet connection (broadband) is not available.

Please refer here for a guide to add the DVD on Feisty Fawn repository list. You can also read the guide in Indonesian language from [wiki.ubuntu-id.org]

Alternatively, you can create a customized Repository CD/DVD that suit your needs using AptOnCD utility to be used on a computer which does not have a high speed internet connection.

-Hope that would help

Tags: announcement mypapit General [edit]

It’s July again! Seems everywhere people are talking about iPhone and Transformers the Movie. I would have things to say about the current events too, but I better save it for my personal blog which I’ve yet to create.

Since Mypapit GNU/Linux blog has been around for more than two years, I would like to introduce some new changes to increase the quality of the blog, which are :

Popular Articles of the Month - I’ll list 3 to 5 most popular articles of the month starting June 2007
Mobile Phone, PDA, GPS updates will be posted on Mobile Programming Pit
Personal Updates will be posted on my personal blog - to be announced later (it will be on a .my domain)

Any suggestion ?
You may forward you suggestion or article request directly to me using my contact form

I hope you would enjoy these improvements as I enjoy introducing them, cheers
