Make a CD to do a minimal *buntu install.

Just a quick one on how to make a CD from the Ubuntu mini .ISOfile. I have already done the install as well, just take a look at the link on the right.

Enjoy.

Stay free and open source.

Clean out the leftovers.

This might be interessing for those who come from Windows and use CCleaner or other such tools to keep their machine clean of the garbage that accumulates over time.

Open a terminal and copy and paste the following:

sudo su (these are two different lines, so this one first and the next line second)

apt-get -y autoremove && aptitude -y autoclean && aptitude -y clean && dpkg –configure -a && aptitude update

This will clean your machine and give you back some space, especially if you have installed a lot of programs/updates.

Hope this tip is helpfull and please comment if you do find it helpfull or harmfull.

Hello to all and every one.

I just posted my first video on YouTube showing the use of Acronis True Image and how you back up your Windows system.

All of the recording and editing is done in Ubuntu 9.04 running Windows XP SP3 in VirtualBox. Watch it here.

For those interested I will soon do a video showing my workflow when doing a recording. Stay tuned.

PS: man I am way to lazy to not update my blog more often. This is about to change though as I shall get my act together and do more blogging and video production. Hope to see you soon.
