Which OS on Asus EEE 1001 HA

hellknight · 22-01-2010, 11:20 PM

I got this new Asus EEE 1001HA with the following specs :

Intel Atom 1.6 GHz (have to see the exact model

)
1 GB DDR2 RAM
160 GB HDD
10.1" Screen
1023x600 resolution

Now I want to install OS on it. I'm confused between Moblin, Android and Linux. Can you guys help me out.. I already have images of Moblin and Ubuntu NBR and Fedora 12.

OpenSolaris has good support for Asus too (in terms of device driver). One of the communities have also come up with special distro for Asus Eee PC series. Its LiveUSB. http://hub.opensolaris.org/bin/view/Project+milax/eeepc

Ubuntu NBR is also a good option if you want to try out linux.
