So put Debian or Ubuntu on it. Since Noodles debiansied my EEE, it's actually usable!
This is the one with the small HDD, so a full Lenny is rather over the top. Sa soon as the Acer (which is Debianised) is populated with what I want on it, the Eee will get Wumpussed.
I'm now wondering how small a "small HDD" is. But then, I have a 1G / partition, 45M /boot and currently a staggering 5.8G in /usr and 2.5G in /var (I have a feeling that I've installed lots of crap that I don't want on this 'ere laptop again!)... so, you can get a very comfortable system in 10G. I'm sure that I used to be running this at well under 2G for OS...
Until then I'll keep the internettything on the Eee just in case I get lost somewhere.
