Hi, i took the last Antix32 version, used rufus to create usb boot, everything worked fine, ntil the end, where i get;
Sorry, failed to create user directory
i red someone else had this on a eeepc, i tried to redo the entire operation and its the same thing, cant get an user name and login psw.
Can anyone help me with this? i m new in linux, its 4 days (and nights..) i try to get a system on this laptop, tried arch32, mint, archbang, puppy, easypeasy.. every time i get stuck somewhere, this distro seems to work fine without installing it but like this its very slow, i hope it can get faster once installed it.

How big is the hard drive on the eeepc. I bet it is too small for a full AntiX iso install.
I used to roll with eeepcs myself. Till I sold em. Might help. Might not.

How to Search for AntiX solutions to your problemsHi, tnks for answering me.
Asus eeepc 701 4G hard disk SSD, 2 G RAM, sd card 4G , processor 900Mhz intel celeron, i did the full installation cause i red it fits in 3,5 Gb…
I took a look at the link even before posting but it seems i did all right, maybe its the 17 version that has a problem? if i click next after the error it does nothing , and the user name and password isn t setted.- This reply was modified 5 years, 4 months ago by CapitanSgrakkio.

You need more than 4GB. You can use base version, but you will have to use the cli-installer.

antiX with runit - leaner and meaner.
Aok, i downloaded the AntiX17 base version, now i dont find rufus like programs on the live session and if i try to download rufus or unetbooting using synaptic it ask me to put admin psw.. i don t have it.
what can i do?
afterward cli installer is inside the Antix17 base .iso??
Muchas grazias por tu tiempo perdido.anticapitalista
username=demo – password=demo
root password=root.
cli-installer is on the iso.Rufus only works in windows.

its absolutly necessary to install it with cli-installer?
i run it from terminal after it loaded the live session?
i tried first: Antix 17 base
than: failsafe boot
both get on the live session..how to get the terminal at the beginning?- This reply was modified 5 years, 4 months ago by CapitanSgrakkio.

Yes, because the gui installer will only work and complete if the hard drive is >4G
You can always try it though …Philosophers have interpreted the world in many ways; the point is to change it.

I even tried with safe video mode, it loaded everything,(it took 10min..) than when it was about to give me the shell, it loaded the live session… why?

That is supposed to happen if you haven’t installed it. It is a ‘live’ cd.
If you want to use the cli-installer, at the live boot menu, type 3 then follow the instructions

Aok tnks again!
Could i put the solid disk as ext4 /root
and the sd card as ext4 /home and swap???rokytnji
From my PM answer to your PM to me.
If your rig was mine. I’d insert a class 10 sd card
in the slot. Install AntiX on that. Install Grub on MBR of SD card also. Use that cheap built 4 gig internal phison ssd as internal storage formatted as ext3 file system. Use my ESC key or whatever. Been awhile so I don’t remember if it was F12 or F11 key for playing with bios settings. Set the SD card to boot 1st on the boot order .
That is my poor mans way of operating on a eeepc. I used to be moderator at eeepc forums before they went bust. I lost a lot of good info when that site went down.
My link I gave in your thread points to different ways I ran on eeepcs. I thin the bug was fixed where fstab and legacy grub does not mixed up any more like it did
when I wrote my how tos.Good Luck.

How to Search for AntiX solutions to your problemsTnks for the Tip, i ll look for a bigger SD card, but a class 10 wouldn t be waisted on that crap Card reader???
Could it read it fast enough?
A friend advised me to use USB 2 instead (the eee701 has 3 USB2 ports), being it a bit faster, but its a bit annoyng having it always on the laptop..rokytnji
Experiment with USB if that is easier for you.
