Hi. I'm wondering about instaling Debian GNU/Linux in a LG X110 netbook
(no CD drive).
What is the best way to perform this?
The netbook specs are:

Intel Atom N270 @ 1.6 Ghz
1 Gb RAM
120 Gb HDD
1 SD card RW
3 USB ports
802.11 b/g wi-fi adapter
Realtec RTL8102E NIC


Thanks in advance and sorry about my english skills.

Luis

If it can boot from the SD, just install Lenny from it. Instructions here:

http://www.debian.org/distrib/netinst

You'll need an internet conexion through your ethernet card.

The Debian wiki[0] contains information about installing Debian on an
EeePC, which may be very similar to installing it on your netbook. You
may also want to look at unetbootn, which creates a USB bootable image
from a CD-ROM ISO. unetbootn is available for Windows, GNU/Linux, and
(if memory serves) BSD and Mac OS.
