Today's article was very timely (at least for me) because I just purchased an EEE PC 901. It's the XP version with only 12GB, so I was wondering if the tutorial could be modified to install Ubuntu, or other (eeXubuntu, eeebuntu, etc) on an SD card instead. I have a 16GB class 6 SD card......
Thanks for the great article.
Charles,
You had one example posted on the forum below.

As these machines are becoming very, very popular, I feel sure one of our members will post a How-To shortly.
I think you made a wise purchase when you bought that particular computer.
Believe it will serve you well.

hi pipo -
I can't speak for capatt, but I have a 900, and I have mixed feelings about it. It's certainly functional, no problems that way - I just have issues w/ the keyboard (it's to small for my fat fingers). I suppose it's something that you'd get used to after prolonged use. Aside from that it's a neat little device.
Pipo - So far I love the 901. I've finally finished customizing and backing it up so it's just the way I want it. A couple of interesting points is that it came configured without virtual memory - no swap file was set up. I set one up and swapped out the 1 GB SoDIMM for a 2GB SoDIMM. It runs faster and more smoothly now. It came with a lot of applications I didn't want: MS Works, OpenOffice, etc. I purchased a 16GB SDHC card for additional storage, then went to portableapps.com and loaded their suite on the card. The card is a Patriot Class 6 and very, very fast. It seems just as fast as the solid state drive. So, I have a total of 28 GB of storage.
I've configured some partitions and am now looking for the right version of Ubuntu to install. Will it be eeeXubuntu, or Ubuntu eee?
