Hi guys I just made OpenSolaris for Eee PC distro: http://kohju.justplayer.com/docs/mirror/OpenSolaris/eeepc-special/osol-0906-111a-x86-for-EeePCs.usb (it should be better to use make its LiveUSB imade though the LiveUSB for creater for windows by Chonan: http://genunix.org/dist/windows/liveusb/OsolLiveUSB003.zip) It includes wifi and wire NIC driver for Eees and some patches for Eees, It is confirmed Eee 701,900,901,1000H,1000HE,S101. It works almost fine for you but it isn't supported sus/resume and a bit some functions, and more lately I am sure OpenSolaris size are getting bigger because of its packages are improved, so we have to remove snapshot for backup when using Eee 701 - such a poor 4GB SSD.
Thus I have a plan to downsize my distro for Eees - perhaps Sergio has tried that. I am sure I will have to have a try soon. By the way there are many netbooks released many vendors and improved rapidly,you know,'Nvidia ION' is cool platform for netbooks.so I agree with you guys,It is a great idea to have a project for 'making netbook-optimized OpenSolaris distro' in opensolaris.org.
