Subject: RE: 70CT bios question
Libby 70 cannot be booted from CDrom, unfortunately, but you can copy some
directories of your linux distribution CD (which one? Redhat? Mandrake/
SuSe?) and install from there.
I have installed Redhat, but have problems getting the Xserver (important!)
and the floppy (not so very important) up and running.
Cheers
