[FM Discuss] Discuss Digest, Vol 36, Issue 3

[James Simmons]

There is already a FLOSS Manual named "Grannies Guide to SoaS" that
never got finished.  Given time I'd like to make some digital pictures
of my own BIOS screens and write some instructions on how to set up
your computer to boot from USB, how to tell if it can't, and what to
do about it.  I'd rather have this and the rest in a FLOSS Manual than
in our regular Wiki.
