I have a Thinkpad X22 running Debian unstable. I used a adapter to connect the laptop HD to a standard PC and do the install via the CD-ROM.So I got myself one of these nifty things. It's really nice but it won't be perfect until I can get Debian on it. The problem is doesn't have a floppy or cd drive. I did notice it can boot from the network. Would it be possible to do some kind of TFTP type deal? It's running Win2k now fwiw.
(I know I could just get a PCMCIA cd-drive but where's the fun in that?)
These adapters are available at Comp USA or via mail order. You could also buy or borrow a USB Flash Key thingie, and copy the Debian boot floppies to it. Hit F12 to
boot from removeable devices and continue the install that way, or borrow a USB cd-rom ow writer and boot from that with a Debina CD.
