COMP 3000 Distribution Report Specifications 2011
Part I
Due: October 17, 2011
The key goal of Part I is to report on the user experience with your chosen operating system distribution. Your report should be submitted in PDF if at all possible. If you submit a MS Word file, expect it to be opened in Libreoffice or Openoffice and hence its formatting and contents may be changed.
This first part of your distribution report should be divided into X sections:
Background
This section should detail background information about your distribution. Please describe:
- The name of the distribution,
- its goals and target audience,
- who develops it,
- how it may be obtained,
- its approximate size,
- and its heritage (what other OS distribution(s) is it derived from.
Also include any other background information that you feel is relevant for understanding the rest of your report.
Installation
In this section, detail how you got the distribution up and running. Ideally, include a screenshot
