CS Package.
The purpose of this package is for you to
get your
very own copy of a KNOPPIX CD!
KNOPPIX is a portable Linux solution. This version of Linux is installed
completely on one bootable CD!!
All you do is pop it into your CD-ROM
drive and
reboot your PC!!!
If your PC’s CD-ROM drive does not boot,
there are
instructions on the CD to fix it. Also,
if you have a CD burner, all you need is one of my CDs and you can make
as many
copies as you need. Everything on the
KNOPPIX CD is GPL Open Source software which means it is free and you
can make
copies of it legally.
I’m selling V3.1 cheap because I have
these already
burned and I have used these CDs in my C++ and Java classes. However, they’ve been thoroughly tested and
they work very well!
I’m also selling the latest version of
KNOPPIX, V3.2,
which includes the newest version of GCC (gcc.gnu.org)! This means that now you can use javac and
java just like J2SE 1.2.1 (java.sun.com)
to
tranlate and interpret ByteCode! All
the libraries you need for the new APCS course (java.lang, java.util,
etc.) are
fully implemented. Also, java.awt.* and
java.applet.* now work! You can
download swing.jar from http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~scot/ap/mbs
to get the swing libraries too! I’ve
used this CD to teach java already, its great!
Appletviewer is not included, but all you
need to do
is write an *.html file and use one of the included browsers.
KNOPPIX is great for teaching CS as all
you need is
right on the CD. I use these CDs with
my students everyday and they love to learn about Linux as an added
benefit. I find it very convenient to
use KNOPPIX as my school doesn’t have the hardware capable of running a
LINUX
partition and my M$ Windoze PCs are always crashing.
So I take these CDs from class to class and everything works
great! The students are more
productive, I have less headaches and we all learn a lot!
So, if your internet connection speed is
such that
you cannot download a 700MB *.ISO file from www.knoppix.net
or if you cannot burn your own CD-Rs then this is the package for you. Also, if you need support, www.knoppix.net has lots of
information
online to help you as well as a lot of members on a forum who love to
help
people new to KNOPPIX in particular and Linux in general.
