Install of Debian GNU/Linux 2.1 on IBM ThinkPad 600E



I want to install Debian GNU/Linux 2.1 on IBM ThinkPad 600E. Is it possible?

The following hardware that I think could be a problem is listed here:

Graphic: NeoMagic MagicMedia 256AV with AGP, 13.3" TFT XGA (1024x768)
Network: 3Com Megahertz 10/100 LAN Cardbus PC Card, Model 3CCFE575BT

I think the NeoMagic chip is OK, but what about AGP? Does the 2.0.x kernel
(Debian GNU/Linux 2.1) support AGP?

I also checked the network PC-Card, and the Hardware-HOWTO list tell me
that the 3c575 driver maybe work in 10Mbit mode with the newest
PCMCIA-package version 3... (something). But what about 100Mbit mode? Is
there another PCMCIA network card running at 100Mbit knowing to work and
possible to buy today?

Please answer be directly at christian.ericsson@bigfoot.com (I'm not
currently subscriber of this mailing list!)
