Hello! I'm installing Debian 2.2 and my laptop is Toshiba Libretto 100ct.
I can use floppydisk to boot and I have NFS to another pc. Are there any
special things to do installing this way?
What is the best linux to install? The one in Potato? And what about
PCMCIA? Are the drivers awailable in
Hello
your'll find that debian won't install from diskettes in the traditional
way. Something to do with the floppy driver. To get my debian installed on
a ct70 I booted the install from windows, using loadlin, and the images.

To recompile from the kernel-source and pcmcia-source packages on Debian,
make sure /usr/src/linux is a symlink to your kernel source directory
(probably /usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.3). Then, go into /usr/src/linux and
do:
make-kpkg kernel_image
make-kpkg modules_image
You'll then get two debs in

The floppy is only useful for booting the first disc. it won't work since it's

I was wondering if it's necessary to defragment ext2fs or reiserfs? I do this
on a regular basis with my Windoze machines.
What utilities could be used for this, if it's recommended?

Hi,
I'm having troubles running XFree on my Dell
i8000 ( Ati Rage M4, 15,4" UXGA display).
I managed to start an X server but it's not
satisfying.
Any help appreciated.

Hello,
Please define "not satisfying".
You say you are having trouble running X, but you managed to start
it. What don't you like? Color depth, resolution, ...?

I'm confused as to how to upgrade my laptop (currently running potato
2.2r3) from kernel 2.2.17 to 2.2.19. Which pcmcia-modules package
should I install? There are four choices:
pcmcia-modules-2.2.19pre17
pcmcia-modules-2.2.19pre17-compact
pcmcia-modules-2.2.19pre17-ide
pcmcia-modules-2.2.19pre1
