Yes it asked me if it was a static connection, and I typed N for no. It then proceeded to download from the repositories. Very strange. I don't even see asterisk in the /etc folder. Wonder if I should re install.<div><br>

</div></div><div><u></u> <u></u><br>Hello all! Well I am learning linux as we go, and can navigate my way around it pretty good now. My question is has anyone installed the acid.iso onto a netbook (no cdrom drive) yet? I am trying to install onto a Dell Inspiron mini 10, it has a 1.66 Ghz processor, 2 GB of ram, and a 16 GB Solid State Hard Drive. I have downloaded and installed the acid.iso file from the allstar website. I can get the install menu to come up, but I keep getting "error unable to download kickstart file". Anyone else tried doing this yet? The labtop is seeing the usb stick as /dev/sdb1, and I can see the files on there, just not sure where to point it to, to continue the install.<u></u><u></u><br>
