For Tommy Trussel and to whom it may concern: 1. Create a bootable usb medium. 2. Apply the patch on the usb medium! (Uncomment this line, see top of this bug) 3. Install (boot into live installation, don't install directly) 4. Install karmic 5. Don't reboot 6. Apply the patch on the the boot partition (navigate there with nautilus and copy the path (quite a strange one), paste it into terminal, sudo gedit $path, save) 7. Reboot. 8. Update your system (language support, new kernel, grub, misc updates) 9. Don't reboot. 10. sudo gedit /lib/udev/rules.d/95-devkit-disks.rules 10.1 and uncomment again... it was reset to the faulty default! 11. Reboot
here you go. This worked for me. Still working after several reboots.. and its fast on this old and small eee pc.
