Neil,
I'm dying to get Linux on my L50. Can you point me to instructions on
setting up the disk image and partitioning so I can get it onto my Lib? One
thing I don't have is a 2.5"->3.5" adapter to put the drive in a big box. If
that's necessary, I'll have to get one before I continue (but I'd still like
the instructions).
TIA for any help,
-e.
