CentOS5 on the Asus EEEpc - Part1

Permalink 24/Mar/2008 01:22 , Categories: Linux

Matthew and I spent sometime today working on getting the CentOS-5 installer done so it works out of the box for network installs onto an EEEpc.

For now, take a look at his post, and the pictures he has posted online. More details from my side as soon as I can get my notes etc sorted out. There are a few issues that still need attention, but we are looking fairly good so far.

Hi. Have you thought about putting CentOS on theCloudBook? I would love to see that!!! Is it possible? If so, I would get one and try to put CentOS on it. Let me know if you think it's worth a try.

I havent actually seen a CloudBook as yet. It should just work, there does not seem to be any strange hardware in there (just looked at the specs briefly)

Let me know if you get one, I'd be happy to help you get setup with CentOS on there.

Can I get a copy of your net boot image? I suspect you had to roll in the ether drivers?

yeah, had to get the drivers into the image to make it netinstall. I'll get the boot image online and post a url here.

Welcome to my Blog. Various bits of rambling and going-on's find their way here. If you have something to say, I would love to hear it from you.
