[PLUG] Linux on Acer EL1600 desktop?

[Krishnan M]

Hello,	
Acer has recently released a very compact desktop (EL 1600) with a decent configuration (Intel Atom CPU, 1 GB RAM, 160 GB HDD, dvd drive, etc.) at a very tempting price. i couldn't resist getting one for myself.
However, when i tried my stock Ubuntu 8 and Fedora 9 CDs for installation, they failed. i couldn't even run Ubuntu from the CD. 
i will post more error information in a later post, but thought of sending this out early, so if anyone has ideas, please help.
best regards,krishnan
