I am currently installing Windows 7 Ult. on my Asus EEE 900 (Celeron Model). I am using an external DVD-Rom drive instead of using a USB install method.
Placing Windows on my netbook is something I have been wanting to do for sometime. I know this will make every Linux geek out there scream, but its my machine and I find Windows easier. I have been planning to put SUSE or Ubuntu on it. Windows 7 RTM seemed perfect timing.
First thing during the install; I reformatted all but the BIOS hard drives located on the machine. I think I am ok deleting those drives, but no turning back now. Worse case, I rebuilt it with the CD that came with the machine.
I am going on vacation for a while (10 days) and I wanted to use Windows 7 instead of the Asus Linux that came with the machine. This will also be a good time to test drive Windows 7 RTM. So far so go, the install is at 20%. Will post updates as to where I am during the install.
SO I end up doing the classic blunder of all it, I tripped over the power cord to the External DVD, with 72% finished. Rebooting now and seeing if the install will go from where it stopped.
