Is TOSHIBA AC100 - possible to install Linux?

Hello, is possible to install any distro GNU Linux for my Smartbook, Android is nice... .only in a phone ;)

Thank you!

Hello Juanze!

Yes, it * is * possible, but I have not tried it yet, just do some research.

One of our problems is that the methods tend to depend on Linux4Tegra, which is no longer on the nVidia site... [info is here: http://developer.nvidia.com/tegra/forum/l4t-removed-downloads-page]

If things progress, but slowly, and the (temporary?) loss of L4T is a real nuisance. (X-)

HTH! Ben ;)

    When I turn secure boot on and legacy mode it ignores windows linux and boots.

    With start secure off mode inherited on it is easy to install. Just keep it away from the Windows partition.

    I just want to know if it is possible to install Linux on my system without compromising my warranty.

    My laptop is a Toshiba Satellite P300 - 19H
    The current operating system is Vista Premium Home Edition (pre-installation on my laptop)
    I paid for 3 year extended warranty, that's why I want to be sure I can install Linux.

    Thanks for the reply.

    Hello

    You can install Linux without losing the warranty. Toshiba doesn't support Linux on this laptop, but you can install it of course.

    If you want to do a dual boot with Vista and that you are interested in a version of Ubuntu, you should take a look at the Wubi:
    http://wubi-Installer.org/
    It is a sure way to install Ubuntu on laptop with Vista installed.

    Check it!

  • TOSHIBA AC100 with Metro to Windows 8

    Hello forum invited and master directors! (most gratefull to master Yofa initially!)

    The Toshiba AC100 that uses ANDROID OS-es is more often peripheral fine and usable despite lying about the time of his promotion with (I assume) Android 2.1, I think at that time which was more fun than today ' today when we lack somekind of backup of the service.

    We have updated through station update from toshiba which update system to the latest android version 2.2 with some new possible applications update!

    There are many distributions of linux (android) for those who needs them and understand the danger of it. We know the auto installation tips and more better ways to cope. packages to install, etc. What kernel, what with things that do not work properly... it's more social way and communication for learners and the community resposnisble personas.

    What with those who are not of that group of people?

    There are two pictures of Ac100 with metro widos!
    so, can it be installed on ac100 or just protected by a sort of average factory?

    Toshiba Ac100 is only a device without correct device support! Toshiba did not have good support for this great unit!

  • How can I install Linux (M30X)

    Hello

    normally, it's easy to install a current Linux distribution. Take a CD Linux Redhat or Suse or whatever and take in the CD player!

    then follow the announcement of Yast instructions, this should work!

  • Is it possible to install XP on Satellite A300D-155

    Is it possible to install the Windows XP on this laptop (Satellite A300D-155 PSAKCE) operating system.
    Meabe other Os like Linux?

    Meabe know someone on tols, energy saveing, I looked on the website of AMD, but I found no anythink for Vista, tols ewery to "AMD PowerNow! Technology"does not work on it.

    Meaby there of other leasing tols to save energy working on Vista?

    Hello

    The reason why the technology AMD PowerNow! Technology works' doesn t could be a fact that the BIOS does not support APM (Advanced Power Management).
    But the BIOS supports ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface)

    However, the installation of XP is no doubt possible. I put t see serious reasons why the XP shouldn't t run in the Satellite A300D - 155 PSAKCE.

    On the Toshiba European pilot page you will find the XP drivers too, so installing XP is no doubt!

  • Is it possible to install Win XP on Satellite T110?

    IS IT POSSIBLE TO INSTALL WINDOWS XP FOR TOSHIBA SATELLITE T110.
    BECAUSE WHEN I START INSTALLING XP IT SAYS SOMETHING "HDD ERROR" PRESS F3 YOU QUIT SMOKING.

    WHAT SHOULD I DO?

    Of course its possible.
    Win XP does not recognize the HARD drive due to lack of SATA driver.
    Add driver SATA during the installation procedure.
    The SATA drivers are part of Intel Storage Manager, which you can download from the Toshiba UE driver page.

  • Is it possible to install Windows 7 on Satellite Pro 6100

    Is it possible to install windows 7 on a Toshiba Satellite pro 6100 computer? I am currently using windows XP.

    Thank you.

    Hey Buddy,

    Do you really think on installing Windows 7 over several years old Satellite Pro 6100?

    In my opinion, it won't work because it is too old and not fast enough. Newer operating system that is supported by Toshiba is Windows XP and this should be the best choice for good old classic.

    So just to be satisfied with Windows XP, it's a good choice for older computers! :)

  • Re: How would I do the successful Toshiba AC100

    Hi all

    I post my ideas for improvements here, maybe someone Toshiba reads this.
    The original blog post is here:
    http://soltesza.WordPress.com/2011/05/09/how-i-would-make-the-Toshiba-AC100-successful/

    Please feel free to contribute here or on the blog.

    -------------------------------------------------

    The AC100 is first Toshiba attempts to create an ARM-based netbook (a smartbook) chipset Nvidia Tegra2 successfully.
    Although the AC100 resembles an adequate hardware design, it became only
    success. Some of the reasons may have to do with the primary
    operating system, Android ([see my previous article on this subject | http://soltesza.wordpress.com/2010/06/27/toshiba-a100-smartbook-with-android-but-why/]), but more can be attributed to the fact Toshiba design decisions.

    Since these machines are now available in my country of origin (Hungary)
    at very attractive prices (~ US $250, some people seem to be)
    trying to get rid of him, shortly after the purchase) I can't bump into
    That's all the time. Sinc [view post | http://soltesza.wordpress.com/2011/05/09/2011/05/09/how-i-would-make-the-toshiba-ac100-successful/] e
    I'm a fan of gadget, I always have my trembling hand see these prices
    and I need to cool down before proceeding to an impulse purchase - I'm sorry
    thereafter.

    What I could click on the button "buy"?

    * Memory more *.

    First of all, 1-2 GB of RAM instead of the meager 512 MB the AC100
    hosts. Why the hell I tried Toshiba sell a netbook with 512 MB of RAM when
    ALL Atom N450 netbooks seemed to come with 2 GB at this time here?
    This amount of RAM would slap Ubuntu on the machine and not
    worry about running out of memory when loading of OpenOffice. Ubuntu has
    been demonstrated on the AC100 and looks like even catchy. (see this [site dedicated to Ubuntu on the AC100 | http://tosh-ac100.wetpaint.com/]). Toshiba could easily put 2 GB of RAM in the machine without significant cost increase.

    * OS or Android Office *.

    Put 1 to 2 GB of RAM in the AC100 would open the door to use a
    appropriate, based on the netbook desktop OS that can take advantage of the
    form factor. They should use Ubuntu, because that could be fixed up
    This material at any time (especially if they're buying tips
    from Canonical).

    I don't think Android needs to stay on the machine but if
    Toshiba still think it is a good idea for any group of users, what they
    could do the AC100 dual-booting, or better yet, to run two operating systems
    parallel (2 GB of RAM would do that quite possible). Android would be
    be the light and easy operating system on the device, but the user could at any time
    switch to a full Ubuntu desktop with an icon of the Android launcher and start
    using OpenOffice or another decent desktop software. The
    paravirtualization developed by B-labs would be a [instant solution | http://armdevices.net/2011/04/04/android-virtualization-on-ti-omap4-processors-dual-core-cortex-a9/] for this problem and would be future proof machine for a possible Windows8 scenario later.

    * Battery more *.

    The 8 hour duration of the AC100 is pretty decent, but more
    battery time is always welcome. The speaker has a LOT of free/empty
    the space under the keyboard because of the ultra compact nature of Tegra2 and
    its support circuits. Toshiba should again take advantage of the
    form factor and add one or more additional battery bays home under the
    a keyboard that could extend the duration of 16 to 24 hours. (Of course,
    they would make the unit but much more weight since these batteries
    would be optional, this decision is up to the user. A 24 hours
    running with a 3-battery arrangement would make the AC100 extremely
    seeking a large set of users. It is acceptable that the
    batteries are charged in the series (so the charging process is longer)
    While Toshiba doesn't have to switch to a more expensive diet.
    (Although the power issue is probably not a serious cost
    Factor).

    * What else *.

    Of course, there are many things to be improved (more USB
    ports, high-resolution screen... etc) but I have tried to make things
    that require a smaller redesign so that could be an improved version
    faster implementation.

    According to me, the AC100 line could be really successful and Toshiba to take the necessary steps to get there.

    Thanks for your interesting ad. :)

  • Is it possible to install Win7 64 bit on Satego P100-490?

    Hello
    I wonder if its possible to install this version on my laptop?
    There is no driver to download from the toshiba page, then I would ask if anyone has any suggestions for me.

    Hello

    Yes, it is possible.
    Satego P100 series is very similar to the Satellite P100 series and if you need Win 7 drivers I recommend that you also check the drivers released for Satellite P100.

    Notes; Satellite P100 is a bit older notebook series and the drivers are located in the archives. As a download-> product type, choose the Archive, then tap the P100 series.

  • Impossible to install Linux

    I am installing Linux Slackware 10.1, but as soon as the cd is started / reading, the following message is displayed:

    Boot CD-ROM type: CD/Non-Emulation Booting

    Initialization failed: press a button to try again...

    I've tried the drive on another PC laptop Toshiba, and it worked without any problem.

    It seems my BIOS, or maybe my CD drive (cd/dvd burner) is not compatible. I checked the BIOS update section, but without success - my model has no bios updates (I have a Satellite M45-S331). What can I do to install Linux on this laptop? I have already partitioned my hard drive and created Linux and Swap partitions.

    Hello

    I'm not a Linux Professional, but perhaps the following links can help you.

    These links are of Toshiba Europe and Japan, maybe that your laptop is not listed because you have a U.S. model.

  • Is it possible to install a card 3 G SIM to Satellite M645-S4070 reader

    Hello!

    I have laptop Satellite M645-S4070 with serial No. YA153766K.

    It is ready for WiMAX and also has a slot for SIM card but does not have a SIM card reader.
    I took a slight peek inside and it doesn't have something that has '3G' written on it.

    Would it not possible to install a SIM card of my portable player?

    I know, I could also use USB 3 G modem but it would be much more convenient to get connection without additional devices around my laptop.

    Thank you!

    Hello

    As far as I know there are models that supports 3 G or 4 G WiMAX Intel
    Your device supports 4G (WiMAX)

    I m not quite sure if it of possible to update this unit with a module 3G but if it would be possible, this should be done by an authorized Toshiba.

    By the way: your laptop belongs to the Toshiba US series and was released for the American market so I recommend the Toshiba forum we:
