I installed a stock Debian testing system on my eeepc, the Asus 1000HE, as a dual boot with Windows (just in case I had a use for what I already paid for). The only nonstandard thing on it was a slightly more recent kernel than the stock testing kernel. But it no longer needs a special kernel; it's a number of versions later now, and the stock kernel is just fine. I installed using a WIndows program called Bye-Bye Windows, or goodbye Windows, or something like that. It's a Linux installer wrapped up as a Windows program. -- hendrik _______________________________________________ mlug mailing list [email protected] https://listes.koumbit.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mlug-listserv.mlug.ca
