After I installed the Advanced desktop last night, I brought the eeepc back to the office.
I intend to update the different packages from xepcś repo.
I did it.
It took more than an hour. It worthed more than 130MB.
But then when I got hold of it again and restart it, it prompts me for password.
I typed in the pwd once, twice, three times, ....... NOooooooooo .......
I didn´t know what happened.
I downloaded the xepc CD iso and went home.
I loaded the Eeexubuntu live session to see if I could retrieve any data in /home/user.
No, not successful. The SSD didn't come up.
I just pressed F9 straight afterwards. In less tha one minute, default system restores.
I then burned the xepc iso to a CD, loaded it to the ext. DVD.
Linux kernel not found!
I burnt another CD, but this time the burning s/w verified the CD bad.
Third time lucky(!!!), I put it to the DVD and tried.
OMG, thank you, thank you, thank you.
So, I am typing on the restored eeepc with xepc updated SSD restore partition.
So this xepc includes all I've done before except the Quick input method for TC.
I just cut and paste the command line in my previous blog entry!
Hula! No worries! All this happened within less than an hour.
Now, my wife asked me tonight if I had reinstalled windoze on the desktop ......
Possibly, a dayś time will be gone for nothing for windoze! Oh no!
