Default The Distro Request Thread


This sticky is for those who want a distro but don't have the bandwidth/time/patience/will to download it, and want to mooch off those who do. Make your requests thus:

City: [goes here]
Distro Needed: [goes here, and mention either x64 or x86]

If you can fulfill a request, please reply to it via PM ONLY. This way, the thread remains clean and will only contain requests. Any posts to the tune of "Hey I have this distro, you want?" will be deleted and the member will spend one week as a Miserable User (experiencing mysterious 'errors' and downtimes).

More importantly, DO NOT disclose personal details like your home address and/or phone numbers in this thread - use the PM system for that.

It's only fair that you 'pay' the person who gave you the distro with the necessary blank CDs/DVDs (and a rep point for helping you out, even).

Anyone stupid enough to try to selling a distro CD/DVD will be banned from this forum.

In other news:
Get Ubuntu CDs from http://shipit.ubuntu.com

Get CDs/DVDs for other distros from http://free.thelinuxstore.ca (and donate to them if you can, too)

No point in ordering, they still ask for donation. I ordered a month back and they still not have shipped the same.

2nd distro: and/or fedora latest version for x86 .

cds only plz. Would pay for cd & courier service.

To administrator: Allow/encourage ppl to edit their posts to reflect if their requests have been taken care of. For example I have no Idea if the guy who wants kubuntu has got a response yet. Second does it really matter which city a peronis in. I can send a single cd for Rs25 anywhere in India.
