Remi, Etherboot (and so rom-o-matic.net) does not currently support PCMCIA adapters in laptops. It's hard to do because the PCMCIA subsystem is another layer that has to be found and initialized, and it is non-trivial. We are moving in that direction, and I suspect in the next year we may get there. Since you have a laptop, which presumably has a hard disk, you could create and load a real kernel which is what Etherboot would do for you. You could then run as a remote client to an LTSP server. Someday Etherboot may support PCMCIA on laptops, but for now, you'll have to load a kernel from other media. Marty -- Try: http://rom-o-matic.net/ to make Etherboot images instantly.
