Ubuntu for EeePC 900

[Gilles Gravier]

Thanks!

I've got a USB DVD drive... so no need to build a Thumbdrive version of 
an installer. But I like Xandros' suggestion better... Ubuntu Eee is 
8.04... so much more recent thatn 7.XX. :)

I'll post back here once the installation is complete.

Gilles.
