Build a Portable Security Tool with the ASUS Eee PC and Ubuntu
,----[ Quote ]
| An easier distribution to put on an Eee PC is Ubuntu – especially if you
| don't have a USB CD drive. That's because you can easily make an installer
| USB stick for Ubuntu, and install the OS onto the Eee PC's hard drive from
| that. The wired adapter works straight away with the installer, making
| installation and adding packages simple, and the wireless adapter can easily
| be coaxed in to life using the Windows XP driver supplied by ASUS.
