When I installed debian on my subnotebook I simply
1) took out the harddrive
2) put it in a desktop computer
3) installed the base system (including network support) from cd
4) reinserted the harddrive into the subnotebook.
All you need is a 50 SEK (== 5 USD) adapter that will let you install a 2,5
inch drive in a desktop computer. Maybe this solution isn't as elegant as
installing from a DOS partition, but it's probably a lot easier. Just make
sure you get all the screws back right :)
