Hello,

I am busy installing a brand new computer built on a Asus motherboard
(P5N7A-VM). Turns out that the advertised "Express Gate" Linux is not
installed by default, and is only installable from Windows(!).

I found notes about how to install it in a USB stick [1][2].

Did anyone succeed installing this on the board itself?

Anyone knows of reports of using Wine with the Windows installer?

Kind regards,

yes...but you had to go to bios and arrange the boot section. if you dont have a usbhdd boot section then put the cd and go to f1 anf it will show you hot to use your usb sticks and follow the prompt.
