Compressed some files I didn't need, and I still have 2.8GB left after I installed everything I needed. I'd recommend it to anyone. Yea really great system overall, debian is nice and snappy

My only problem was the network think not reading wireless networks, but for some odd reason the create/touch did it. Compressed some files I didn’t need, and I still have 2.8GB left after I installed everything I needed. I’d recommend it to anyone.

I really did forget about commenting out all the other lines in /etc/network/interfaces although I don't think you need to do all the wpa_supplicant stuff though. Also, if you create the file and then touch it then I think it will just be overwritten anyway. Thanks again for the reminders. Is the EeePC working well for you?

For those who have the network manager, and have it not showing the wireless networks when you right click it, do this AS ROOT!! (su): nano /etc/network/interfaces Comment out everything other than “lo” entries in that file and save the file Create a file called /etc/default/wpasupplicant, add entry ENABLED=0 and save the file touch /etc/default/wpasupplicant Reboot your system or use the following command sudo /etc/init.d/dbus restart I resolved the problem, and I’ll post the solution here for you.

There are still some holes in this guide that I need to fill but for those who have some Linux experience it should be quite easy to follow. Check back every now and then, because I'll be doing updates. It’s no problem at all.
