The Asus EEE 701 has a 8GB SSD drive. Is there something "special" about the Asus I should do? Workarounds?

The 701 should have a 4GB SSD soldered onto the mainboard. It may be a 701SD. 701 4GB WFM with extlinux, though I haven't run it for many years (the keyboard keys started dying one by one, and when SPC died I finally gave up). Gave it away to be a security camera last month, so I can't check. Whenever grub gives me problems, I spend half an hour trying to repair it, fail, give up, and install extlinux. Then it works forever. YMMV.
