My Friends computer has died, the harddrive isn’t working anymore.
I took my 2GB thumbdrive with Eeebuntu and booted the OS directly from the drive.
Every part of the computer works, save the harddrive. These machines are like cars, after a certain age, they just start falling apart. So I recomended he purchase a new PC first, then a new harddrive, for his old PC.
Of course we are college students, so the funds may take a while to come around, and in the mean time… He will be running the entire computer off of two thumbdrives. one for the OS, the second for storage.
Im surprised it works as well as it does, but for the time being, he has a working PC.
