Inappropriate?we are looking how we can address this specific model

Inappropriate?Thanks Tariq... I will wait for a solution. Thanks -
Inappropriate?any progress on this?
Thanks. -
Inappropriate?I got it to install and run by manually setting the partitions giving / 1825MB and leaving 65MB for a swap. After that it works until you try to run any updates.
I’m almost there.

Inappropriate?I don't know if this is a perfect solution, but it works for me. I recently bought a 4 GB SDHC card from pc world for about £20 and put it in the eee 2gb surf then I installed Jolicloud using the manual partition settings. I put the / mounted on the SSD using all the available space and put the /usr mounted on about 3.5gb of the SDHC card with a 460mb swap file. My 2gb surf is now working even after installing updates and there is no noticeable slowness when running apps. If you need any more details about this let me know.
I’m happy

Inappropriate?I tried something similar to what Andy used; I put / on the SSD (though I allowed about 128 MB in a swap partition), /usr on a partition on the SD card, and /home on another partition on the SD card. I do run into some journaling issues related to /home, but I believe that is unrelated.
I like Andy Gold's solution of just using / on the SSD and /usr on the SD card - will be trying that tonight when I get home. Seems like an ideal and rather straightforward workaround. Not a perfect solution, but better than not being able to run JoliCloud!
I’m encouraged by this

Inappropriate?Finally had a chance to test out the above: do a custom partitioning setup with / on the 2 GB SSD (128 MB for swap), and /usr on an SD card. For the latter, 2 GB would probably be the minimum, 4 or 8 would give you lots of room to install more apps.
JoliCloud then installed without a hitch on the EeePC 2G Surf and runs great!
I’m happy

When I make the SSD the partition editor asks what type (ext2, ext3, etc.). What is the right answer for the SSD, the swap file, and the SD card? I have a 16 GB SD card and would like to use the whole thing for extra applications and storage. Any help would be appreciated. -
Inappropriate?Install it on a USB stick (8GB+) or SD card.1 Comment Add a comment

SD card is way too slow.

Inappropriate?Andy Gold might have the best fix here. It just I would like him to be a little specific on how he partition his sdcard for /usr. example what type of file ext2/ext3? and is there any thing i should do about the essid stuff so i don't get any jurnaling system error?
would appreciate any help.....
thank you :)
i love jolicloud
