Here's a good question for you! I've put Mandrake 8.0 on a desktop and it's great (I'm new to Linux, by the way). Now I need to get Mandrake 8.0 on my tiny Libretto palmtop. The palmtop currently has a Japanese version of Windoze 95 on it and I'd like to keep a very tiny bit of the disk for Windoze but have Linux eat up most of it. Problem is that my PCMCIA fax/modem card and the floppy drive are no longer functional (long story involving a lot of travelling). Is it possible to NOT use a floppy disk to boot when installing? I want to just use my CD (I do have access to a PCMCIA CD machine that connects quite nicely) and install Mandrake 8.0. Can I do this? I've seen other methods on the Net, but I need to use CD only. . . Hopefully, -warren
