I say make one for gentoo. Or LFS.

Anyway, I am not able to download the video yet(campus bandwidth cap). And I use gentoo. I will say good job. But I think more people need a how-to for after they install linux. I would make a video showing how to edit stuff and use linux. That way more people stay with linux than just install it and use windows.

Great! Now make a video on how to install Wine, and install an application there (ie ms office) and how to bypass the message saying that you have to get administrator rights in order to do this, although you ARE already the one and only administrator of the system.

Make another video on how to configure the X system again if you did something that screwed your installation and can't load linux any more. (I changed 1 font and I got some weird messages on boot, then "X failed" and then "System Halted"). Something SO simple as changing a font destroyed completely my linux. It reminds me of Windows 3.1! Even worse than win3.1. The only way to config was by a text-based configurator, and I had to put horizontal and vertical freequencies for the monitor, DAC ???MHz for graphics card. After doing this configuration I had to format because it completely ruined everything. (That was on Suse and Mandrake installations)

tutorial videos are a pretty good ideia and may provide a geat

deal of help for people wanting to try out Linux :)

Just have 2 things to notice:

What codec did you used for the videos?

Don't know if it is just me but it doesn't allow to timeseek (advance and retro on the video).

Last video takes too long doing nothing, a bit of cutting on some parts would not hurt it.

Can you make a video tutorial:

How to mount a new (internal or external) NTFS formated HDD to the system, without modifying the MBR or the data on that disk.

I know that when installing Linux, all HDDs are there and there are icons on the desktop for each disk, and there is automounting function when you click on an icon.

But if I connect my WindowsXP hard drive after the installation of linux (in case you're wondering why I did that, I did it because I didn't want to lose any data from my WinXP drive, or change anything on the MBR of this drive), I can't see the drive anywhere as an icon, and I don't know which /dev/hdXX it is... And I don't want to lose any files from this HDD.

Can you make a video tutorial about it?

    • I use a Linux laptop every day. I have tried to switch to Linux on my gaming PC which has a 5070 ti. It was not a great experience
    • Alien Isolation 2 will bring a new protagonist and setting, watch the reveal trailer here by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Only a few weeks ago, Sega and Creative Assembly dropped a teaser for a new Alien Isolation. Today at Summer Game Fest, Alien: Isolation 2 was officially announced with a new trailer while also confirming a whole lot of information about the setting of this survival horror project. Check out the reveal trailer above. Leaving behind the Sevastopol space station, the sequel will take players to a remote colony world. With a Xenomorph (or more) on the loose, players will be navigating both the surface of the weather-ravaged planet as well as "the claustrophobic confines of the Weyland-Yutani outpost of Kurosaki Station." Interestingly, Creative Assembly is leaving behind Amanda Ripley, the daughter of Alien's Ellen Ripley, as the protagonist too. While it hasn't confirmed a name yet, players will be taking the role of a new character for this new adventure. The setting is also being described as a new hunting ground for the Alien. This will have players improvising and developing new tools to aid in their survival and escape, all to avoid "cinema’s deadliest killer." "It has been over a decade since we created the original Alien: Isolation and I am so excited to show everyone the first glimpse of the sequel," says Al Hope, Creative Director at Creative Assembly. "Our dedicated Survival team at Creative Assembly has been working hard to create a new, evolved Isolation experience continuing the legacy of the Alien franchise, making the eponymous killer smarter, the environment harsher and the chance of survival slimmer." Promising the same deadly tension from the original from over a decade ago, Alien: Isolation 2 is in development for PC, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PlayStation 5. A release date has not been announced yet.
    • With how far Tim Apple's head has been up Trump's ass, there's no way this was done reluctantly.
    • Like the article stated, it's written completely from scratch, unlike the umpteen Chromium clones. It got its start as the browser built-in to the also written-from-scratch SerenityOS.
    • Hello, From looking at the screen shots in your motherboard's manual at https://endownload.colorful.cn/EnDownload/MotherBroard/2022/Intel 600/Manual/Intel 600 Series BIOS English/Intel 600 Series BIOS User Guide.pdf, you go to the ADVANCED option at the top of the BIOS (UEFI) menu, then select SECURITY in the list of options on the left.  From there  you can enable and set the Secure Boot mode.
