I am running Lenny on my desktop and would prefer to run Debian on the eee, as
well. So I found EeePC/HowTo/Install on the wiki and used the custom installer
to install Lenny, as was suggested. The wiki seemed to suggest that I might
have better luck getting wireless to work with a newer kernel, so I did an
immediate upgrade to Sqeeze. Almost everything installed. I got an error
saying that hal could not be configured unless udev was upgraded, and udev
could not be upgraded without a more recent kernel than the 2.6.26 that was in
Lenny. Since I specifically wanted a newer kernel, this did not worry me, but
I am having no luck installing the kernel. The most recent kernel that I could
find in Squeeze was 2.6.32-3 so I tried to install it and got pretty much the
same error as when I did the upgrade. It said to upgrade the kernel before, or
at the same time as udev, so I attempted to install all three: hal, udev and
the kernel at the same time. I
used the command:
aptitude install hal udev linux-image-2.6.32-3-686
Your computer has to be running the more current kernel before udev
updates .. reboot into the newer kernel and finish (aptitude full-upgrade).
