   Had an EEEpc ... great little unit ! Then I dropped
   it off a ladder while aligning a security camera  :-(

   Ran MX.

   Actually this laptop runs MX too ... it's been a good
   system for most everything. doesn't consistently rank
   so high on DistroWatch for nothing. Have NOT 'updated'
   to a BookWORM version though ... and won't.

   Working on FreeBSD for an N95-based BMax micro-box.
   Got everything good in a VM - now to put it on the
   hardware .....

   Hey, has anyone ever tried to 'dd' a VirtualBox VM
   onto real hardware ??? Get a really good image and
   Grub2 *might* be able to find it and make it bootable.
   MX has a utility for creating a clone, bootable,
   customized system - it's been useful more than once.
