Belkin makes a Cardbus to USB adapter that seems to work fairly well, and
doesn't need an auxillary power supply cable like some others do.
However, you will need an actual Toshiba (YE-Data) floppy drive to boot your
Libretto from a floppy. There are no substitutes that I know of. The
floppy is designed with proprietary features outside of the PCMCIA spec to
allow for this to happen without additional drivers or software.

Can anyone recommend a PCMCIA-USB Adapter ?
