trying to install to ThinkPad



I have one machine running Caldera OpenLinux and this machine has a CDROM
drive.  I have another machine, a ThinkPad (with no CDROM drive) that is
connected to the other machine via 10BaseT.  I have a Debian 2.0 CD in the
drive of one machine and I want to install Debian on the ThinkPad via NFS.

I have some 2.0.29 Debian disks, a boot disk, a root disk, a rescue disk, and
the base disks, but I cannot get the ThinkPad to start the installation from
the disks so that I can then begin an NFS installation.

Does anyone know how I can do this on a ThinkPad?  Caldera is easy to install
on this machine, but I want to try Debian on it.


thanks
