Re: How to install Hurd in a EEEPC 701??

[Adam Richards <adamnr@gmail.com>]

Hi Horacio,

I have an eeepc 901 and after a number of painful attempts I found the easiest way to get debian hurd loaded was to roughly:
1. boot the eeepc with a live distro on a usb stick
2. download a preinstalled image and un-tar using these instructions:
http://ftp.debian-ports.org/debian-cd/hurd-i386/current/README.txt
3. use dd to copy the image onto the eeepc drive
4. mount drive from usb stick and update /etc/fstab to match your configuration
5. reboot


cheers,

adam
