Not likely. 

Installfests were useful. Their time has passed. This is a sign 
of the _success_ of Linux. Back then, Linux was difficult enough 
to install that installfests were helpful. Now Linux is often 
easier to install then Windows. Now, the user who needs help 
installing, has narrowly focused issues best addressed on a 
one-by-one ad hoc basis, on the list or in person at a meeting.
