About This Workshop

Join Owen for this free, hands-on, 2-hour workshop designed to help you take control of your computer and explore a third option beyond Windows or Mac. This event is ideal for people who want to become more technical but are unsure where to start.

What You’ll Do

We will guide you through the process of installing Linux on your PC, covering steps like unlocking the BIOS, booting from a flash drive, installation, and a test drive. The focus is specifically on installing Linux on a PC, not a VM or macOS.

Mandatory Prerequisites

  • Bring Your Own Computer (BYOC): You must bring your own working condition PC/laptop (MacBooks are not supported).
  • Data Backup: Installing Linux will remove all existing data from the computer. You are required to back up all your data before attending the workshop.
