Greetings!

History: Toshiba Tecra laptops (at least the 710, 720, and 730)
         can't boot the bzImage rescue disk.

I mailed a patch (from http://www.cck.uni-kl.de/misc/tecra710/) to
Bruce and this problem might be fixed on the next set of boot disks.

I got Debian 1.2 up on my Tecra 730 by first installing Debian 1.1 and
then upgrading to 1.2, setting the machine to boot from loadlin.


Note that the loadlin in the tools directory is version 1.5 which does
not load bzImages.  The loadlin package contains version 1.6 which
has no problems with bzImages.


Is someone maintaining a list of 1.2 glitches and simple fixes a la
mode de Scott Barker's "SimpleFixes for Slackware Linux"?


I am very impressed with Debian 1.2  Congratulations!


Thanks,
Kirk Hilliard
