The Linux distribution for this machine must be able to share this drive easily with the Windows machines in my network, with as little hassle as possible. All my media files (TV shows, mostly) are stored on an external hard drive attached to this system via USB. Most importantly – this HTPC is also my media server. I do have a few needs when it comes to this one.
Google is not helpful in providing a solution, but it did reveal that I’m not the only one experiencing problems. I tried both USB and CD as installation source. It’s not the installer that crashes – the entire operating system hangs.
Sometimes even before starting the installation (while still in live CD mode), sometimes during. Sadly, Ubuntu 9.10 has major issues on Atom 330/Intel 945GC+ICH7 chipset machines no matter what I do, it will always crash during installation.
Since my preference in distributions lies with Debian-based systems, and Ubuntu in particular,I obviously went for the latest Ubuntu release, version 9.10. Now, however, I want to try Linux as an HTPC operating system, but I kind of ran into a roadblock there with Ubuntu 9.10 – so the question is: what is a good HTPC Linux distribution? It performed its job fine running Windows 7 and Boxee, and over the past few months, it ran Mac OS X Leopard with Plex. I have an Atom 330-based tiny computer which I use as my HTPC. I am just wired different than others.I’m in a bit of a pickle here. I equate that to running a operating system using a condom. I do not use virtual box at all on anything. I used a conventional hard drive install.
