Sorry for OT post.  There are many Win experts on list, and hoping
someone knows the answer.

My wife wants to use my old Thinkpad 240 sitting in my closet.  It has
IBM USB external CDROM drive, which won't boot, naturally.  I have
searched bootdisk.com and IBM site but there is no DOS driver for this drive.

The only way I could think of how to clean install Win2K is:
1) Create 4 boot diskettes off the installer CD
2) Boot from the diskettes and copy all the cab files to C:
I'd think C: needs to be FAT since NT installer is DOS
3) Convert FAT to NTFS then expand the partition size afterward

This is a tedious procedure.  I was wondering if anyone know any better way.
Thanks in advance.

P.S. Boy Mac is easier...
