Attached are my presentation notes for Bunsenlabs Linux. One of the things I forgot to mention during my presentation is that a live USB prepared in the standard way will not install unless you disable secure boot. (I believe that this is the case with vanilla Debian as well.) There are ways around this; consult the Bunsenlabs forums.

I can vouch. We couldn't successfully install BL to a USB key for Glen last night so he could boot his Dell tablet from it...

Thanks to Bill and Mike for great presentations. I think we all learned something; I know I did.

Bunsen is reviewed this week on Distrowatch:

I just installed BL to a 120G SSD (older model) internal HD, on my Acer 11.6" notebook (Intel I3 cpu)

In addition to Mike's presentation notes, during the install script, there is an option to install a Flash player.
There is a choice between installing an Abobe or Pepermint Flash player.  I chose the Pepermint Flash player.
I found that using the default Ice Weasel web browser, I was able to view the Flash video on the bbc.com web site.  With my Mint 17.3 Distro, the bbc flash video won't play using my Opera browser or the Firefox browser.
