Does anyone have experience or a pointer to installing F13 on a Samsung N220? Nice little computer, Atom cpu, 1 gig, 250 HD, realtek wifi.
I installed CentOS on this netbook. I went to pendrivelinux, grabbed the iso to USB tool, then created a bootable thumbdrive with the CentOS boot iso. I then used the boot iso to install across the network. The Fedora approach should work similarly.
Excellent! Thank you very much.

I used an analogous technique on the NC10 when it first came out (with F11 if I remember right - and it worked fine. some differences were that I initially made a copy of partedmagic on a bootable usbkey and partitioned the drive using that before booting a usbkey set up for the Fedora install - with one additional difference - on booting the boot.iso from the usbkey I elected for a hard drive install and referred to a copy of the DVD iso that I had also added to the usbkey with the corresponding images directory also on the key. That way the install did not need the network.
I am guessing that the method will be the same for the 220 and this seems to be born out by the previous post.
