ASUS EeePC 900HA

I went looking for relevant documentation, and the best I found was in Italian. :S

After mucking with Kubuntu, followed by Ubuntu, then Linux Mint LXDE, I'm looking to roll my own, with Arch. (Friend of mine swears by it, and it looks interesting). I'm just wondering what I really have to look out for...

I know about the ath500k wireless driver, I just need to work out what else I need.
Also, I need to leave my windows installation intact, but it's spread over two NTFS drives, and should be easy to pick. Right?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated, don't want to shoot myself in the foot. xD

Read the official guide and the Beginner's guide.  Both are very helpful.

Re: ASUS EeePC 900HA

I run Arch on an Asus 900HA and didn't have to do anything special. I don't dual-boot, so I can't help you there, but everything should be pretty easy to set up on your machine.
