WOODY is OK, but for this Laptop you need the bf24 Floppys.
Please be aware, you need mny time to install the Base...
(Arround 13 Hours...)
After this, I suggest you to recompile a 2.2.20 Kernel because
it is very light.
But I suggest you to look at <http://www.ebay.com/> for a memory
card with 8 or 16 MBytes because you have only 4 MBytes inside
and 4 MBytes as card (I think)
