New Installation Check List

This list is what I check after a new Linux installation.  Some of these items are specific to my equipment.

Things to check after a new Linux installation:

  • Old installation is the default for boot loader and it still works
  • Windows installation still works
  • Budget in OpenOffice
  • Firefox with Delicious plug-in
  • Ctrl-Alt-Delete brings up log off dialog
  • Backup to Mothball
  • GnuCash
  • APC UPS Daemon (apcupsd and GUI)
