elgreco Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 Hi everyone! I desperately need help on this one... I don't seem to be able to install leo from a retail disc using the dfe method on the eee box! I have been at it for almost two weeks and it's driving me crazy!! What I have done: - Tried different boot discs (bootloader-132) - Created my own boot discs using slimbuild - Modified already made boot discs What has happened: - Nothing... The Asus eee box b202 is an atom based nettop, which is a netbook minus the screen. It's hardware are almost identical to the Asus eeepc 1000h. If there is a bootloader for the 1000h than maybe the same could work here. I have downloaded and I'm now running the latest BIOS. Is there a hacked one I should use perhaps? Some info about the eee box and it's components: http://fixunix.com/debian/529512-bug-49775...e-box-b202.html When I boot from my own made dfe132 cd, it just goes to: "MAC Framework successfully initialized" and then nothing happens. Picture attached of it: And this is what I get when I try to use the boot-cd for the dell mini 9 (which I successfully used to install leo from retail on a dell mini 9): Can someone help me please? Is there anything else I can try? I've been at it for almost two weeks now, it's getting anoying... I don't wanna use iDenbes install or other ready made, I'm impressed with the setup on my mini and want to use the same method on the eeebox. I've even tried chanting in tounges, but that didn't help... Thanks for your time!

Methanoid Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Doesnnt the Eee 1000H need a hacked BIOS to work? ISTR it was the lack of AHCI setting that the hacked BIOS deals with. Perhaps that is the problem? Hopefully you can get it sorted. I'm about to buy an EeeBox myself!

pmorin Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 I believe a modified BIOS can be found here: http://osrom.net/biosmod/ I am thinking of getting one also. Let me know how it turns out.
