I would like to replace the HD with a solid state memory and run some sort of lightweight linux on it. Have you managed to do it? I have seen a post from you saying you were to install xubuntu in yours. I would appreciate if you could report any successful way of doing it.

It can be written to a floppy disk and if you have a usb floppy drive, you can boot this floppy with the restore cd in a usb cdrom and get it to load the usb cd-rom driver and start the restore process. Took me alot of tiral and error to discover this. Sharp came so close to having a good restore system (why not run it from your desktop and install it to the hd via the usb access in the docking station?).
