Asus Eee PC 2G Surf/Linux - Manual (Page 82)

5-4 Chapter 5: System Recovery
Using USB Flash Disk
You need another PC and a USB flash disk (larger than 1GB) for Eee
PC system recovery.
You will lose all your data on the USB flash disk. Back up
important data before using the USB disk as a recovery disk.
To use your USB flash disk to perform system recovery:
1. Connect your USB flash disk (size larger than 1GB) to another
PC/NB (bundled with Windows XP or later version) and insert
the Support CD to that PC/NB at the same time.
2. Click Utilities on the left and select ASUS Linux USB Flash
Utility.
Your Eee PC might not be able to detect all the USB flash disks.
We recommend you use a USB flash disk smaller than 2 G.
