A. unetbootin
Is it possible to put Windows XP or Vista onto a Linux netbook?
Q. Is it possible? I don't really want Linux, as I'm much more familiar with windows. How much would it cost?
A. first, look at the specs. if the HHD or SSD is small, you might be able to pull it off, but consider an external SSD or a high-capacity flash drive. Also, does it have an optical drive? if not, you would need an external one and it has to have some form of BIOS. (the thingy that loads before the OS). If the netbook meets all these, it might give you the option to boot from other sources. Press it and boot from the windows installation CD. Choose the highest capacity device that you can install it on. (With a netbook, you could probably do XP, but vista NO WAY!!!) Good luck! =D
Mount network drive on Linpus Linux Netbook?
Q. Is there easy way (for a complete linux newbie) to mount network drive on linpus linux netbook? I don't even know how to enter the commands on linpus linux although I have lots of experience on WIndows systems. TIA for your help.
A. Linux can read and write to most file formats. There are several ways to do this
The below assumes you have set up network security properly and have access rights to the drive
From the command line:
use the mount command
mount -t (type) device) (dir)
where type is the type of device the drive is
device is what the device is
dir is what the root director is
hint enter man mount at the command line to see the manual pages for the mount command for a fuller explanation and for correct syntax
On a GUI
Use the GUI to navigate the network to the drive you want to access
right mouse on the drive
mount the drive
Wish I could be more help, but I'm not sure what distro you are running
Good Luck and Welcome to Linux
