Hi list,

Just took possesion of a brand-new ASUS EEE pc. Nice box, but it's
currently running Windows, and I'd like to have grml on it.

In researching this issue late last week, I ran across two posts, one
that said that grml supports the EEE, and another that said that it
would be "the next release" until it is supported. While I don't mind
getting my hands dirty, I'd prefer not to have to compile any kernel
stuff due to time constraints. Long story short, does the EEE work
out of the box with the current grml release?

Thanks all,

Josh

I've used grml phuh (the next to latest release) without any issues.
I've also used backtrack. On the eee 900. With an atheros wifi card.
Which model of EEE do you have? The newer models have a different
chipset

sorry, replied to Fred but didn't reply to the list:

My eee is the 1000ha

http://event.asus.com/eeepc/comparison/eeepc_comparison.htm

basically the atom processor w/ 160 gb hard drive, upgraded to 2gb of
ram. I'm not sure what kind of chipset, wireless card, etc.. it has,
I'll make a test run w/ grml tomorrow. we'll see how it goes.
