![]() One major issue you’ll quickly run into is that all EeePC models use 32-bit x86 CPUs. Also, make sure you mount the internal SSD (if you have one) and the SD card with the noatime flag to extend their life! Bear in mind that this will render your system unbootable without having the SD card inserted, but if you’re already using it for /home, you almost certainly want to have it always inserted anyway. You can use the SD card for /home, and the internal storage for the root partition, although you should be careful if your internal drive has a capacity in the single digits of gigabytes – you might want to move directories like /usr and /etc to the SD card too. If your EeePC has less than 32GB of internal storage, you’ll probably want to use an SD card for more space. Neither of these operating systems are really viable choices in the modern day and age, but there are still options available for the EeePC. On release, most EeePC models were shipped with either Windows XP or a modified version of Xandros, a discontinued Debian-based Linux distribution. Many of these tips apply to lightweight netbooks and and notebooks in general, of course, but they’re written from the perspective and goal of EeePC usage. The high memory usage is because I have Firefox open, writing this very post!
