Installing Debian from a DOS partition



Hello List,

I recently got my hands on a Toshiba Libretto 110CT. Which is a very
small laptop, with no cd player, just a pcmcia floppy disk that only
works under DOS, because the Linux kernel does not have the drivers for it.

I've finally been able to upload files to and from the DOS partition
using a parallel cable connection.

I can also boot to DOS using either the hard drive or a boot floppy.

But how can I start installing Debian (total hard drive = 4Gb, the Dos
Partition = 1Gb) starting from DOS?

I've read [http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/index.html.en] but
it does not help me much in getting drivers for PCMCIA network cards, or
even starting up debian.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks,
Mark
