With the 110 and its 64M memory, no problem.
MAndrake is better than RedHat, because it can be installed
directly from the CD to the Libretto, with the PCMCIA floppy image.
I used a Frecomm Traveller PCMCIA CD for the 7.2,
and a SCSI CD with Adaptec 1460B for the 8.0.
I bought an Ibm DJSA-220Hd for mu libretto (20GB)
and partition it with fdisk because I wanted to have this partition
/dev/hda10 1017 1027 88326 a0 Hibernation Thinkpad IBM
at this exact location.
After the recommanded installation,
edit lilo.conf and Xf86config, and it runs fine.
