We talked earlier on IRC about the Asus Eeepc I think the idea was to start a wiki page with at least informations regarding the Eeepc. So here it is : http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Laptops/Asus/Eeepc (not linked from the CentOS on Laptops wiki page yet though , still a draft ;-) ) I had to modify the installer initrd.img to include the atl2.ko module for the wired nic to install from my local mirror .. where do i store it ? on the wiki page itself, as an attachment ? a simple link to a tmp space on my website ? I'm now wondering what's the best way to include the atl2.ko module during setup : a rpm that will be fetched from centos extras (?) or a simple driverdisk ? Ideas & comments welcome ... -- - Fabian Arrotin <fabian.arrotin at arrfab.net> "Internet network currently down, TCP/IP packets delivered now by UPS/Fedex ..."

Give me a hint if you want any help with the page. /Mats
