I made two CDs with this and also the related UBCDWINDOWS, neither of  
which would boot on the T105.  I suspect the issue is the all-SATA  
motherboard, or some other support issue.

It comes with a CD that installs several known operating systems, and  
I believe it works by running Linux first and then inserting drivers  
needed to get Windows to boot.
