Have you tried entering the following parameter at the boot promt:

  linux floppy=thinkpad

Did the floppy work when you booted with the bo disks? I never got it to
work.

I'm afraid that this is all that I can suggest you try. IMHO the ibm
thinkpad 380 is not a great linux machine anyway, as the video chipset is
IIRC not supported by xfree86. There's probably more obscure/proprietary
hardware weirdness in these beasts.
