RailsWizard. nLite Windows XP Install on Asus Eee PC. Installation of Windows XP on an ASUS Eee PC The Asus Eee PC (in the US anyway) comes with a very simplified Xandora Linux interface that provides some very basic functionality, like web browsing, email, messaging, and word processing. For some people that's all the Eee PC will ever need to do, but for others, a full blown install of a "heavier" OS will be required (or maybe just wanted).

Because of the Eee's limited hardware specs, Windows XP comes to mind, but even a default install of Windows XP with all of the patches can be 2GB or above. On some Eee PC's (the 2GB models) this isn't an option, and even on the 4GB models, said XP install would require more than 50% of the available space (3.8GB formatted). So what is a person to do? If this sounds like something you'd want for your Eee PC, you're in luck. What You'll Need Pre-Installation Advice Creating the nLite Windows Install CD Read the instructions carefully adn you should be fine. Setup Perfeito Servidor - Guia Ubuntu PT. Time For A Grown-Up Server: Rails, Mongrel, Apache, Capistrano and You | Archives | codablog | Coda Hale. More and more Rails developers are finding out that deploying a Rails application isn’t as simple as upload and rename; Rails apps work best when running all the time, and many Rails programmers are moving from traditional, shared hosts, like Dreamhost, to virtual private servers, like Rimuhosting, which allow them full control (and responsibility) of production servers.

Given this freedom, there are now a huge number of options available for deploying a Rails application, which is rare for such a new technology. So what to use? Apache + FastCGI? Lighttpd + FastCGI? SCGI? Apache 2? What the hell is Mongrel? Mongrel is the hot new kid on the block. Sounds sweet. Well, horses for courses. So we’re going to be using Apache 2.2 as the front-end for Mongrel, which allows us to both serve up static content like it’s going out of style, but also to use a huge wealth of modules, like mod_deflate, which will improve your site’s responsiveness and download time.

Okay, so what do I need? Ready? 1. Howto use Radrails, Aptana and Eclipse all in one!
