Fedora Education Spin

This is an attempt to create and to maintain a possible education spin of Fedora.

Fedora 8

Here is the kickstart file for a GNOME-based spin of Fedora 8 (It's size is approximately 695 MB): File:SIGs Education Spin livecd-fedora-8-education-final.ks

Fedora 9

And here is a possible proposal for Fedora 9: File:SIGs Education Spin livecd-fedora-9-education-beta-1.ks

This one here is now KDE-based due to some space problems with the old version. We may have a discussion on this (and on the included applications) on the mailing list or during a meeting.

This one is related to mathematical applications and will be one of our first spins. We might still change one or another thing...

%include livecd-fedora-base-desktop.ks

%packages
@kde-desktop

-amarok
-digikam
-kdegames
-kdemultimedia
-kdepim
-kdeutils
-kftpgrabber
-kipi-plugins
-konversation
-ksshaskpass
-ktorrent
-twinkle

kdeedu
qalculate
wxmaxima
octave
gnuplot
kpolynome
Macaulay2
orpie

dragonplayer
kdegraphics
kdenetwork
kiosktool
koffice-kword
koffice-kspread
koffice-kpresenter
koffice-filters

[...]

%end

And here is another possibility, which is now GNOME-based and possibly intended for older students:
