[olug] olug install fest - newbie howtos

[Nate Rotschafer]

I personally like XCDRoast especially for newbies...also to create iso 
images i prefer the simple dd command it works like:

dd if=/mnt/cdrom of=/home/nrotsch/sysworks.iso

And it creates an iso image ready to burn with XCDRoast...more to come later 
on my howto.

Thanks,
Nate Rotschafer
