Hi, I tried booting MeeGo on Acer Aspire AO751 using pen drive. As per MeeGo release notes, MeeGo won't install on Acer Aspire AO751 since it has ATI graphics. I can see the first screen (I remember blue background) which gives me to choose to install or boot from pen drive, then I choose to boot from pen drive, but all I see is empty screen with cursor blinking. Thanks, Datha

I will have to wait till week end to try MeeGo on Acer Aspire AO751. I will definitely give a try after taking my data backed up from current Win XP :-) ________________________________ From: Andy Bleaden <[email protected]> To: Dathathreya K <[email protected]>; [email protected] Sent: Thu, 27 May, 2010 11:36:21 AM Subject: RE: [MeeGo-dev] Can I install 'MeeGo v1.0' on Acer Aspire AO751 ? RE: [MeeGo-dev] Can I install 'MeeGo v1.0' on Acer Aspire AO751 ? Have you tried a live cd/USb pen drive first. Chances are if you can boot up this on your Acer it should install. Others have already tried the dual boot with windows who may give a better (not hard) answer than me. I do not have windows here but I did manage a dual boot with moblin previously and Ubuntu Hope that helps Perhaps let us know how you get on trying a live usb boot ..ie booting from a pen drive and you can see what works ...what does not Andy Bleaden Funding Manager 0161 474 3755 mob:07800 618510 www.stockport.gov.uk/resourceconsultancy -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] on behalf of Dathathreya K Sent: Thu 27/05/2010 11:08 To: [email protected] Subject: [MeeGo-dev] Can I install 'MeeGo v1.0' on Acer Aspire AO751 ? Hi Fellas, I have 'Acer Aspire AO751' http://bit.ly/9fAGdz which is supposedly not supported netbook for MeeGo 1.0. Can I still install 'MeeGo v1.0'? 'Acer Aspire AO751' comes with 'Windows XP'. Can I dual boot? -Datha _______________________________________________ MeeGo-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.meego.com/listinfo/meego-dev ********************************************************************** Stockport Council - providing over 600 different services to local people .
