---++ Installation steps:

   * Install Ubuntu:
      * Recommended partitioning: > 15GB Linux partition using ext3 mounted on /
      * Swap partition of 4GB +
      * Data partition using ext3 with the remainder
      * Primary user named lciuser with the usual password
   * Once ubuntu install completes, add some users:
      * Edit /etc/adduser.conf
         * Uncomment EXTRA_GROUPS related variables so new users have access to dialout etc
         * Recommended: add the group admin to the list of EXTRA_GROUPS
      * Add users as desired with "adduser <username>"
   * Install some basic tools:
      * sudo apt-get install openssh-server 
   * Run the basic ros install:
      * http://www.ros.org/wiki/ROS/Installation

   * Adding "admin" to EXTRA_GROUPS did not appear to work in my case.  If so, you can simply log in as lciuser and use the System->Administration->Users & Groups control panel to add your other users to the admin group, allowing use of sudo.
