Dear Members, I want to Install OpenSuse 11.1 on my EEE B202 having only LAN & USB .
I have the following Hardware at my disposal
My Laptop with Vista Business ,This laptop has the DVD ISO image of 11.1. I have a 8GB USB Pen Drive too.
So far I tried Unetbootin ( downloaded from Sf.net) to make USB image for open suse but does not work , but I am able to get into "linux rc" using it
I then started FTP server on the my WinBox and extracted the ISO to a folder using 7zip . The Linux rc opens the ftp server & then it pops up an error " NO repository found" or "Ftp://192.168.0.100/%2Fboot/i386/branding SHA1 Sum Wrong"
After this it exists setup ,How can I solve this..
With regards Deepak
Yahoo! recommends that you upgrade to the new and safer Internet Explorer 8. http://downloads.yahoo.com/in/internetexplorer/

What is the hard disk configuration on the EEE? What else have you installed on it? No. of partitions? How many USB ports do you have?

Post the error message you got from the above.

I get the same error when I export (http) the ISO file system. At one client location I have seen the above work with NFS export. They claim they just copied the contents of the DVD ROM and exported the file tree via NFS. I don't understand why it works with NFS and not HTTP. You may want to give it a shot.
Found this from the archives of opensuse mailing list:
http://en.opensuse.org/SuSE_install_from_USB_drive
Another user suggested to use package "kiwi-desc-usbboot" to create a bootable USB drive e.g. the LiveCD+Installer ISO image.
I have use neither - YMMV.

I am also having a Idea S10e, with single partition occupied with XP. I will try this on next Sunday. http://www.thatsabsurd.net/2008/12/xp-and-ubuntu-dual-boot-s10e/
