Thanks, Dave. That is so much easier! I'll be back soon with another problem. Actually, here is a small question right now: I have having difficulty getting a persistent USB created. I'll keep trying the Live USB utility on the eeePC. Can I use a download directly onto a USB done on the Mac rather than taxing "Sweet Pea's" small memory?

I have managed to enter the BIOS utility and on the Boot page change the boot order priority to put the USB as #1. I saved and exited. But it is still going directly to Windows even though it actively reads the USB stick. Hints anyone? Saturday is fast approaching! I'll keep trying and report back if I stumble on the answer.
