Umount your usb key if mounted. Create an ext2 file system with cfdisk:

 cfdisk /dev/sdc
 New/Primary
 Bootable
 Type 83
 Write: yes
 Quit

Format the USB key (Should be not mounted):

 mke2fs -j /dev/sdc1

To prevent fsck from being run on it:

 tune2fs -c 0 -i 0 /dev/sdc1

Pick the UUID of your formatted usb key:

 /lib/udev/vol_id /dev/sdc1 > /home/foo/uuid_of_your_usb_key.txt

Mount your usb key:

 mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt/usb

Untar the tar.gz file:

 tar xvf zeneee-1.0-beta3.tar.gz -C /mnt/usb

Replace the UUID by the previously determined.

Replace the UUID by the previously determined:

• look at the lines 15 and 76 for zeneee-1.0-beta2
• and lines 15 and 87 for zeneee-1.0-beta3

Install grub:

 grub
 root (hd2,0)
 setup (hd2)
 quit

Examples with GRUB:

disk1 ⇒ hda ⇒ hd0 for GRUB

 disk2 => hdb => hd1 for GRUB
 disk3 => hdc => hd2 for GRUB
 ...
 (hd0,0) => disk 1, partition 1
 (hd0,1) => disk 1, partition 2
 ...
 (hd1,4) => disk 2, partition 5
 ...
 (hd2,0) => disk 3, partition 1
 etc ...

You might have to recreate the ”/boot/initrd.gz” file. For this, look the ”/boot/initrd-tree” directory. Edit the “rootdev” file. Change ”/dev/sdc1” string by ”/dev/sdb1” (i have not tested this). Remake the initrd.gz (it's a CPIO GZIP file) with the initrd-tree. directory.

• Insert your USB Key on EeePC
• Press on power button
• At the EeePC logo, start pressing the ESC repeatedly
• At boot menu, choose your USB Key

• root user: password is toor
• zenny user: the password is zenny
