Thanks for the feedback everyone. I now have a dual core Atom N570
netbook (Acer Aspire One model).
It didn't boot the hddimage off of a usb stick (SysLinux halted - I'll
figure out why later), but I have been having fun booting modified yocto
standard Linux images using grub. I put a 2.5" 60 G OCZ SSD in it along
with loading Ubuntu. It can build poky minimal from scratch in a few
hours and rebuilds the kernel fairly quick (should get downright good
once I upgrade the RAM from 1G). At this point, I'm having fun playing
with the kernel and the initial ram disk with a custom init.
And the nice thing with the SSD installed is that it boots Ubuntu in a
few seconds for when I want to make mods to my poky image. It makes for
a very cool little development system!
