Ok so I've bought an Asus Eee second hand.

What next?

I'm thinking download armoury and ubuntu OS onto a memory stick or external HD then wipe the pic and install from USB. Problem is I have no idea how to do that.

Also, is there a function to completely deactivate wifi on a pc? Sorry I use a mac and as such have no idea right now.

Thanks

Hi

I have looked at your tutorial and am stuck at literally the first step. Sad

I will happily pay for somebody to walk me through the process of getting this set up. Actually i think i might make a thread for this. I will link to it when its up

No need to pay, a little patience is needed and you'll have it running soon enough. Do you already have Armory installed on your offline computer? Where are you stuck?
