    Dear people,

    I am 99%, if not 100% sure this question has already sort of been asked, but I did not find it...

    Is there a very simple manual on how to install windows XP on the aceraspire one... With a USB stick or external drive in fact??!
    And then on how to have ONLY windows XP, as I do not need/want the linpus that is on it right now...?
    I believe that to have enough space on the device (its only 8gb for me), there should better be only one OS anyway...

    thanks for helping out...!

    And also I wonder... Is it possible to sort of delete linpus, and replace it by Windows XP? Right now I have about 4gb free space on the aspire one. Do I rally need to buy a seperate SD card of 4Gb to do the trick? Or can I delete linpus, and replace it by Xp without buying a card? Otherwise I assume you always need that card in there when booting?

    The simplest way to install windows xp is to get a usb cdrom, put windows xp installation disk in, then follow the on screen instructions. It'll whipe the linpus OS by default.
