I apologize first, because I know there are multiple guides for this sort of thing. But either I'm just doing everything wrong, or they aren't made for what I am trying to do. I have a 701SD asus eee pc. I am trying to get ubuntu on this computer. How ever, it has no cd drive, which makes his a little more difficult. I do however have an external hard drive, I don't know if that helps or not. All the guides say flash stick, and I don't know whether they are the same thing or not.
Here are the links I've been trying to use:
https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/installation-guide/i386/boot-usb-files.html
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EeePC/Installation
Basically my question, is there anyway I can get ubuntu on my eee pc by using my external hard drive, and if so, how, in plain english, do I go about getting this done?
Thanks!
