Downloaded the Ubuntu onto the netbook to shuffle onto the flash drive. Wouldn't you know it? SLED can't move the file. Sled can't open Nautilus as admin. Bloody useless. Can't wait to get rid of this diablolical distro. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Simon O'Riordan" <voluntar...@btopenworld.com> To: "Dorset Linux User Group" <dorset@mailman.lug.org.uk> Sent: Friday, November 27, 2009 3:05 PM Subject: Re: [Dorset] Goodies for Reasons Harvest
Hello Archie, I've got the HP Mini with Suse, but there is(obviously) no optical drive. How do you put 9.04 onto it?

It came with Suse but works much better with Kubuntu 9.04. £153 is an absolute bargain. Buy several and give them as Christmas presents.
