EEE 1000h Customized Kernel Installation

Hi all,

I'm having trouble installing the Network drivers and installing the customized kernel on my EEE 1000h.
I followed the wiki but didn't have any luck.

When I do ifconfig -a I only get LoopBack.

Hope someone can help me.

Thanks.

Re: EEE 1000h Customized Kernel Installation

You need to either compile custom modules for wlan and eth, available from AUR or use the custom robertek kernel (check the thread "Arch on Asus EEE 901" in this forum).

It's probably easiest to download the custom kernel package from a computer with internet access and install it on your laptop:

First, add robertek's repository to your /etc/pacman.conf;
2) sync your repository db with pacman -Sy
3) download the package with  pacman -Sw <package name>
4) transfer to your EEE per USB stick/other means
5) install with pacman -U <package name>
6) edit /boot/grub/menu.lst, there's an example in the Asus EEE 901 thread

Hope that helps!

Re: EEE 1000h Customized Kernel Installation

I tried that, plus installing it again.

But now I get the following:

ramfs$


And nothing more pops up...


Isn't there a very vlear tut that I can follow for the EEE 1000?
I think there not very clearly.

Re: EEE 1000h Customized Kernel Installation

You probably make same mistake like I did. Frstly I wrote /boot/zeneee.img only to initrd section in /boot/grub/menu.lst and forgot to write /boot/zeneee to kernel section.
