Thread: Installing Kubuntu to SD card on EeePC 4G


i run kubuntu 9.10 on pc , want try on eeepc 4g. eeepc has default xandros linux installed , don't want nuke until know kubuntu going run ok, decided test out installing onto 8 gb sd card.

have kubuntu live cd decided boot desktop , install there. unfortunately, installation dialog large can't see buttons @ bottom. plugged in external monitor , rebooted. things looking @ first halfway through boot process, external monitor lost picture, square 1 after 2 attempts.

luckily, have kubuntu 9.04 live cd started again. time, got way desktop display on both internal , external monitor. setting external monitor 1024x768, able work way through installation, choosing format entire sd card single ext4 partition. partitioner started format partition stalled @ 0%. formatted sd card on pc , started fourth attempt @ installation.

installation began, dialog has been showing "copying files... 22%" on hour now.

9.10 turned off external display during boot seems bug me. i'm not sure stalling while copying files. either there's wrong sd card (it's been working until now), or bug in installer (unlikely installed 9.04 pc before upgrading online 9.10), or reason files aren't being written disk.

if can give input on i'd extremely grateful. i'd kubuntu running on eeepc eventually, if can't onto sd card i'm concerned risking installing onboard ssd storage.
