[SLUG] netbook distro installation hell
Hello All. A novice, I have tried yet another flavour of Linux to dual boot, but I lack the ability [even with Googling] to make any of them work on my eee1000H, the latest being Ubuntu Remix, and now I don't even have Windoze. I am fed up, I clearly lack the necessary intelligence, and ready to give it away, but I am willing to give it one last shot, and pay someone to install a working Linux OS for me if it is not too expensive. [including the 'My3 Mobile Broadband USB']. All I want is a working netbook. If anyone is able and willing, I am on the northern beaches but willing to travel. Many Kind Thanks in advance. [I hope!] I apologize if this posting causes a problem.
