Second Exam…
Well, I’m finally free after my last exam yesterday. Everything went well, so I’m happy to consider myself a final year (eventually).
So, now that I have a lot more free time on my hands, I can get around to a lot of things that are on the long finger. Obviously, work on my fyp begins, as did my involvement in the Zoology Dept this morning. I eventually installed Mandrake 10.1 onto a high powered workstation, even if messing with SATA drivers, kernel recompiling and a few other tricks had to be employed.
I’m also free to start studying for the CCNA again. I also acquired a 2nd Cisco 2501 router for my Cisco hardware lab today, courtesy of Steph. Now all I need is one more 2501 (or some equivalent device capable of Ethernet and a few DTE/DCE serial links) and a Cisco switch. So far, I’ve been smart enough to not buy anything from eBay, but I may have to for a switch…
