Hello all, this is my first post to the list.
It is now almost 2AM Friday night here in Philadelphia.
I am leaving for Israel Sunday morning, and I am
hoping to take my brand new used Toshiaba Libretto 100CT with
me to keep a journal on.
I don't need anything fancy, but something that boots from
DO you want windows to be kept on the machine?

Hello Samuel,
I would install all the base floppies at the following FTP address:
ftp://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/dists/potato/main/disks-i386/2.2.20.0.1-2000-12-03/images-1.44/
I don't happen to have my potato CD handy, so I can't verify
if these files exist on the official CD set..
On Sat,
I agree,
the debian-basesystem holds enough for you to play with.
I don't know if it holds vi or vim or vni, it probably has elvis-tiny on
it.
So that's something you might want to upload from the net.
That will do fine, if you include the pcmcia-cs packages as well, network
support is easily done
the only thing you mmight hace a problem is if the cardmgr hangs when it
probes your computer. doyou have this problem?

Hi--
How do I enable apmd support in the kernel?? I have debian 2.2 potato
installed on my laptop. But when I start-up the computer the apmd daemon
says that apmd deamon is stopped at user's request. and when I try to
start the apmd daemon manually, (apmd start) I get the message that says
apmd is
you have to make new kernel and then u will have APM working

if doesn't works, you have to compile a new kernel with apm support...

After all that the freakin floppy drive is fried. It doesn't work in Windows,
and I can't boot a disk from it..
major bummer.

And how exactly do I "make a new kernel"??? pardon the ignorance please,
but I am new to the UNIX/Linux world of computing.
if you know of any web-sites or any such place that explains the process I
would appreciate it.
thanks

Does anyone know how I can get-into single-user mode?? My lap-top
complains that the processes are spawning too fast, and I suspect that it
is not able to handle the multiple tty's (its an old 486 DX laptop).

Floppy is showing some signs of life..
Which Boot/Root images do I use? Keep in mind this is a PCMCIA floppy drive, so it might not recognise a second disk.
