so the problem is that i have tried installing 22 different distros for an desktop computer by using it's hard drive in place of this one that im now using.
also i tried to install various light versions of ubuntu to an asus eee pc 4g (701) without success. if any of you could recommend what os to use in that kind of netbook i would appriciate it dearly.
i did try to install the easypeasy and the eeebuntu too and neither of them worked. i got the errrno 5 error of input/output 6 different times on all of the alternative post 12.XX versions all the way to an 8.XX versions, i have tried 3 different usbs. to sort out that the usb is damaged? i have used universal usb installer on windows 7 versions 1.9.5.5 and 1.9.5.8 and they seem to install the .iso files just right.
it may be that the eee pc's hard drive has come to its read write limit due that it is an ssd drive? i need to buy a new hard drive to it to continue its installations.
but the strange thing is that the asus eee pc's original asus based os works just fine. i just want to have a bit of more free space from the hard drive when i eventually get it.
but to the current and more important issue.
i also get errno 5 input/output error on an desktop computers hardrive, it is an barracuda 7200.7 160 gigabyte seagate drive. and it has no broken things in it, i managed to check this by one lubuntu version that i managed to run via an usb stick that i have used to try these different ubuntu os's. the furthest ive gotten on these numerous installation attemps has been to the desktop via the usb on this barracuda, in versions of ubuntu 10.10 and an lubuntu 12.XX
the issue that i expect to run into later, and perhaps the reason i cannot run the installations beyond different points is that, i try to install ubuntu via usb, using entirely different computer than the one where it is going to be, once i manage to install an working version of ubuntu. this computer that i am currently using the forums runs on 64 bit system, the older one is 32 bit. so i try to install a 32 system to an hard drive described above?? maybe this is also wrong, but the problem is the desktop may not be rescueable due i cannot enter even bios on it when it is connected to the old desktop pc. so i try to use this ''newer'' computer to run the installation to its working hard drive?
i have managed to format the barracuda by using lubuntu 12.04 32bit alternative but it didn't install itself on the hard drive most likely due this computer is 64 bit system?
thank you from your time!! happy holidays as well! :smile:
