::#'''New Machine Issues (UEFI)'''. The new machines in T3074, T4044, and T4048 among others are causing issues with certain hard drives where the system wants an EFI boot partition. I have already contacted ITS about having this disabled but if this issue is not finalized soon (who knows how fast ITS will work on this) we should ensure that by the start of next semester UEFI is disabled in the machines to make sure students can get their OS installed without any problems. As a side note, I have found that booting from a Live CD and wiping the hard drive and placing an ext4 FS on it has worked in some scenarios, but not all.<br><br>
::#'''Lab 2 Chart in Lab Logbook'''. Create an empty chart in lab2 logbook, so students can simply fill in the chart.<br><br>
::#'''Virtual Machine Package Installation'''. The installation process for the KVM/QEMU packages should be clarified to include instructions on when to use groupinstall and when to use install. Also, I have noticed in past semesters as well as the current one that KVM/QEMU will randomly go missing, causing issues with VM installation as well as VM networking. Uninstalling and then reinstalling the virtualization packages has often solved the problem, though not 100% of the time. We should look into this problem and maybe redo the VM package installation section altogether.<br><br>
