This is a interesting little fanless cherry-trail thin client.
Specs
Linux Distros
Ubuntu
Ubuntu desktop will not install onto the thin client. The Ubiquity installer freezes on the keyboard layout screen.
Furthermore, 8GB is too small to fit the full desktop install.
Instead, you can install Ubuntu Server and then install ubuntu-desktop-minimal.
Debian
- Install Debian as usual
- After installation, reboot the debian installer into rescue mode and select "force grub installation to the efi removable media path".
Reflashing ThinOS
- Download an install the Wyse USB imaging tool
- Note I could only get this to work properly in a virtual machine
- Download ThinOS 9.1 Merlin
- Flash ThinOS installer onto a USB disk
