Does it have any kind of network connectivity? If so, you can boot net install images from the floppy drive. If not, you'll either have to figure/find out how/where to make/get the base packages onto floppies or install on another machine. To install with another machine, you probably just need to get an adapter for the laptop hard drive to IDE and ATX power and plug it into another computer (one with a cd drive), install onto it, and put the hard drive back into the laptop. -- David Mandelberg <mandelbergd@eth0.is-a-geek.org>
