Also the touchpad works just fine and so does wifi. :D Over the weekend I hope to have enough time to try out Ubuntu Remix, now that I am confident that I have factory restore capability. hi Kayno,

To clarify, yes you are correct I created the usb hdd from the Kogan GOS iso with unetbootin and it boots up and runs the live session perfectly. Also the touchpad works just fine and so does wifi. :D Over the weekend I hope to have enough time to try out Ubuntu Remix, now that I am confident that I have factory restore capability.

Just to clarify - you used unetbootin to copy the kogan iso to a USB disk, and then live booted to kogan gOS? Did your touchpad work? Thanks for the info Miraceti.

Just to clarify – you used unetbootin to copy the kogan iso to a USB disk, and then live booted to kogan gOS?

Did your touchpad work?

When I tried gosConvert3.exe and the fixboot.bat as directed in the manual, the usb it created would boot ok but the countdown timer would only count down from 15 to 0 and then reset back to 15. I admit I only tried the "live" version on the usb hdd, as I am preparing to try Ubuntu Remix and want to ensure I can get factory reset capability ;) I have just used your method with unetbootin and it worked perfectly :D unlike the method explained in the Kogan user manual where it is suggested that the gosConvert3.exe is used.
