It looks like I will be installing the Linux flavor Xandros onto my TR2 when I make the switch to an SSD drive. I might make it dual boot since there may not be much in way of support for drivers for certain parts of the laptop.

Anyone with experience using Xandros on the TRs?

Well, scratch adding this OS onto my TR2 for now.

I have instead replaced my WinXP with Xandros on my Dell desktop and love it! Although, I have to admit that the OS seems to be slightly slower than XP.
