Heh, DOS and memory management don't even belong in the same sentence.
You definitely don't need DOS installed in order to install Linux.  In any
case, here's a URL that discusses running Linux on a Thinkpak 760.  There
are many other links from that page, so if it doesn't have all the info
you need, or if you have a different model, you should still be able to
find some good Thinkpad info.

Good luck,
