Glenn W: /* Lectures and Deadlines */

Welcome to the Carleton University COMP 3000: Operating Systems (Fall 2007) wiki.

==Course Outline==

The course outline can be found [http://www.scs.carleton.ca/%7Ecourses/course_outline.php?number=COMP%203000A&term=Fall&year=2007 here]. A backup copy is [http://www.scs.carleton.ca/~soma/os-2007f/course_outline_printable.php.html here].

==Running Linux at Home==

To give you an opportunity to become more familiar with Linux and UNIX, consider running a Linux distribution on your own machine if you can. I suggest looking at [http://www.ubuntu.com Ubuntu] or [http://www.debian.org Debian] (the distribution used in the lab).

If you don't want to dual boot from Windows/MacOS X or you just don't want to worry about repartitioning, you can run Linux in a virtual machine.
See [[Running Linux in a Virtual Machine]] for more information.
