I had this same trouble a couple of months ago when trying to install
Debian on a friends ThinkPad.  Someone told me that the old (1.1?)
disks would work.

I haven't had the machine, so I couldn't try that out, but I'd be
interested in any successes you might have.  I'm probably going to get
the machine and try again soon.

Thanks
