Oh, you know what, now that I think about it, I used Red Hat 5.2. The
PS/2e is a tiny, laptop-sized desktop box, whose only expansion ports
are (ready for this?) PCMCIA. That's pretty unhelpful. So I took it
apart, and discovered that the PCMCIA slots were actually on a
standard ISA board, which was plugged into a single lonely ISA slot.
I pulled it, replaced it with a 3Com 509, and did a network install.
It's a completely useless machine; I only did it to prove that I
could. What better way to spend a lazy Sunday?
