Does the EEE require a particular USB flash drive capability or property?

I have a Sandisk flash drive that boots correctly on every accessible USB-bootable computer. For some reason the 1000HE BIOS has difficulty seeing the known-good Sandisk flash drive as a boot drive.

  • Have you tried witha differe t flash drive? When the machine boots, try pressing ESCto see if it lets you select the drive from a list of available boot devices. Also try F2 or Del to get into the BIOS and manually set USB devices to boot first.

Pressing the ESC key did it for me. It brings up a boot menu and the USB device containing the .iso file will show up and can be selected.

I struggled getting USB flash to boot Linux on Eee PC 1005PE. What worked for my flash drive was disabling Boot Booster in Bios.
