Re: Libretto 100ct
On my Libretto 100ct...
I did the stupidest thing, to nuke win98, before I had thought the process through..
The floppy is only useful for booting the first disc. it won't work since it's not workning like a normal floppy, and requiers a special driver, and some hacking into the kernel floppy code =)
The best advice I can give you is, to choose your debian, version take the swap partion, and make a DOS partion of it (Only temporarly)
Put the base system, there with all the drivers disks etc.
The use loadlin from there.. And when you have installed you system, then you put back, the swap partion..
Since you are going to need all the stuff in the base system, for PCMCIA drivers and so on..
I'm currently updating to SID, and have no problems at all..
Maybe you should have a copy of your XF86Config, in case, you haven't hacked it yourself.
I can't recall any options about those settings in the XFree tools..
well.. good luck..
