Linux images

I took it upon myself to take a look at the unused Linux box in the server room yesterday. Cutting edge technology, I assure you. If ever anyone has verged on creating a sentient piece of hardware, I assure you, that box is it.

This specific Linux box is fussy. And when I say fussy, I mean it would be easier to explain to a PMS'ing woman why you forgot your one year wedding anniversary. I booted it up, only to watch it fall over and reset over and over, doomed to forever loop through self-testing followed by half of FreeBSD start-up, only to fall on its ass and reboot again, ad infinitum.

I saw it in my heart to take pity on this box. I've relocated the wounded animal to a new habitat, at my desk. Finding a copy of Linux in this office, though, is like searching for a panda bear in the Serengeti. You can do it, but you'd be fucking stupid to.


So... last night I downloaded a Debian CD image with the intention of burning a Linux install disc....

Any idea why I'm writing this post, and haven't cut an install disc yet?

BECAUSE THE COMPANY DOESN'T HAVE ANY BLANK CDS IN STOCK!
