ASUS Eee PC Administration Training

To quote Wikipedia "The ASUS Eee PC is a subnotebook computer designed by ASUS and Intel noted at the time of its introduction for its combination of light weight, Linux-based operating system, solid-state drive and low purchase price." It neglects to mention that the OS is heavily modified to resist tampering and can therefore be potentially difficult for those required to support and administrate it.

Our specialist ASUS Eee Pc training courses are intended to provide essential skills in the administration of the Asus EeePC laptop. The installed Linux OS has been "adjusted" both to prevent tampering and for ease of use, and our courses cover all the tricky differences which may be encountered so that you can successfully manage the system and resolve operational problems.

Our course 'Linux System Administration Differences for the ASUS Eee PC' provides the opportunity to learn the differences between the installed Linux system as found on the ASUS EeePC system and 'standard' Linux, and to manage the system on a day-to-day basis. It covers the installation/recovery of the supplied Linux distribution, with advice on installing Microsoft Windows as an alternative, System startup and shutdown, User Management, File System management, Network configuration and service management, plus other topics. The course is aimed at experienced Linux administrators.

The 3-day ASUS Eee PC Administration Essentials course for those who are new to Linux and EeePC administration duties. It provides the essential grounding in skill necessary to successfully manage the EeePC linux system as installed by AUSU. This includes the installation/recovery of the supplied Linux distribution, with advice on installing Microsoft Windows as an alternative, System startup and shutdown, User Management, File System management, Network configuration and service management, plus other topics. Note that the one-day course Linux System Administration Differences for the ASUS Eee PC concentrates on the Eee PC differences only while this course covers all the areas in much more depth, and assumes no previous linux admin knowledge.
