If you have one of these the first thing you need to do is install Puppy Linux on it. I have two of these and they really come alive with Puppy Linux running on them. Puppy installs directly into RAM so the hard drive is not even touched. I use unetbootin to format an SD card or USB stick and install the Puppy Linux ISO onto the SD card or USB stick. When you run Puppy on the netbook you will have a chance to save your settings and any files you may have downloaded, to your SD or USB stick.
But will it blend?

it was a long time ago -
but I think it was one of the standard F keys... F1 or F12 maybe? not sure
In any case I didnt use the BIOS for the gOS installation - I just burned the gOS on a DVD and used an external DVD drive (USB).
