Yes, I have signed up to go - whether I can make it is another matter.

My experiments with Puppy/DSL Linux proved inconclusive due to
partitioning issues with the target machines.  I thought I had developed a
workaround using cfdisk but this didn't work on Saturday night when I
visited the HackLab.

However, I will persevere and am currently trying out installs of
VectorLinux which is supposed to be optimised for sub-optimal PC's:
