Nice job. Please provide some info - is the hardware working OK, any known issues? I use ubuntu 11.10 with mine, much faster boot times, with ssd, though. (missed what the hard-disk here is)
@ramz7887 Do you mean the main HD? I still have the original 40GB HD (1.8" size), split in half between Xubuntu 11.04 & Windows 7. I have 1GB of RAM, 1.2GHz model. Win7 loads a bit slow but usable once it is running.
@ramz7887 Yup, took me a while to look up the info and the progam to make the boot USB. I do have it running fine now, dual booting with Xubuntu. BTW, the machine also works perfect with Haiku OS ( new port of the old Be OS) in case you want to try something different.

How did you handle the low hard drive memory issue? Have you been using SD cards?
