On the A series (A110 and A150) Elive has two critical bugs, preventing the use of the Elive distro: Bug report : http://bugs.elivecd.org/index.php?do=details&task_id=414&project=2 Elive shuts down within 30-60 seconds after booting, whether one boots to the Enlightenment desktop, or to a root prompt, indicating a problem with the Kernel compile parameters used for the Elive supplied kernel. And bugreport : http://bugs.elivecd.org/index.php?do=details&task_id=413&project=2 You cannot boot with an SD card in either of the two cardreaders. The boot will hang just after populating the udev framework. Appearently the much advertised "full support for the Acer Aspire One netbook" stems from testing Elive on only the 10" D series models. So stear clear of Elive if you do not have an Acer Aspire One D150 or D250. Elive won't work on other versions at present.
