When I downloaded it, it was MB in size. A screen came up that allowed me to boot to the SD card. I selected that. A menu came up which allowed me to install the operating system. Make sure you have copied any of your personal files to a separate SD card, as this installation wipes out the all the SSD contents with a new file system!
I noted from previous installations that there might be a question about video size during installation. There were a series of prompts about the keyboard, time zone, and disk partition.
For the disk partition, I selected to use the entire disk wiping out all the previous contents. Fluxbox, IceWM, jwm and others are available as well as text and graphical browsers, grant and light applications. Great article. I recently fired up my eee pc 4G with window 7 and it was slow as molasses.
I did a lot of searching for a lightweight OS and after trying a few, I found puppy linux, BionicPup 32 version. It works great and set up was a few minutes.
It is using less than half the 4G drive and the performance is much better even with the MB memory. Thanks for posting this update! I was going back to check the noatime SSD settings and other optimisations I remember from 10 years ago. Same as Tom, I booted the Eee after a few years in a carrier bag. It was a bit knackered with a line of dead pixels. Package support feels up to date on the 32 bit hardware. Bluez picked up the noname bluetooth dongle, I might get a separate BT keyboard and mouse.
