We (Linux ETC) recently acquired a (used) 28 bay SCSI CD-ROM server, which
will be tested this week.  Pending its functionality, we could bring it to
the InstallFest along with a separate WAP and switch (isolate it from
DeVry's network to conserve bandwidth at their request) and load it up
with various CD ISO images (just one section, which would be 14 bays) so
that folks can DL and burn his/her own copies.
I am thinking on the following distros, open to comments:
- Knoppix 3.3 or 3.4 (1 disc)
- MandrakeMove (1 disc)
- Mandrake 10 (3 discs)
- SuSE (disc 1 only, you can redirect the install to go off the web after
a base with YaST)- Debian 3.0r0 (disc 1, same deal as SuSE save via apt-get)
- RedHat 9.0 (3 discs)

Any other thoughts or recommendations?  Save burning Mandrake 10 and
Knoppix 3.4, I have the rest on CD at present.
