My wife has installed the KDE spin on a eee 901 with no problems.
It has a primary SSD of 4 GB and the secondary has 16 GB, the system fits well
in the primary.
The 901 has completely different hardware and the 901 works fine. The
issue is with the 701, 900 and possibly others. I think its the non
Atom based eeePCs that are affected.
