[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] djlenoir:
I am now able to get this to install consistently, with network connection the whole time with v0.6. Thank you first of all NoDiskNoFun for that. I have run through five or six installs and have not ended up with a functional Ubuntu load. The touchpad has never worked, despite selecting to install the drivers, so I am using a USB mouse.

I am going to list all the steps for the install... would someone please just copy this and highlight the options that will give me the most complete install that will provide acceptable performance? I live in the US, central time zone, and I do have a keyboard dock for my TF101, in case any of that helps to answer the selections.

I am using Android/Ubuntu selection in x3maniac's Tubuntu with the v0.6 ubuntu.img and Prime ROM (system.img) that is stock with root. So the options start after everything has been installed through Tubuntu and a reboot happens (have to hold Power + Volume down to get back into the installer). And with that, the selections...

NOTE: The xterm window appears on the bottom half of the screen and the virtual keyboard is hidden behind this window. I plug in an external USB mouse, as the touchpad does not work, and move the xterm window up to the top half of the screen so the virtual keyboard is visible.

Ubuntu comes up, log on using Gnome Classic

It appears to be working but the OS is barren. No package manager or even web browser. Is that normal?

Please advise if I selected best options and, if so, how to make Ubuntu useable from here.
