SCSI won't help. The goods news is that there are new BIOS routines

Hey, I'm having some problems getting dpkg to install libc6 as part of
installing hamm on my Toshiba Libretto. I have tried this under both

Don't know about you, but I couldn't get lilo to boot with a 540 mb drive,

Drive has 1049 cyl, 16 heads and 63 sec /track.
Wouldn't boot unless I used the "linear" option in red hat 5.0.

Thanks again
