Re: Debian on IBM thinkpad 380XD
Well, a month ago I've installd slink on ThinkPad 385D. The tecra disks did not help. I ended up compiling a custom kernel as zImage on another workstation and replacing the kernel image and modules on installation disks. If you need, I can try to send you these floppy images, if they are still alive. Sergey. On Mon, 15 Mar 1999, Brian Morgan wrote: > Anyone have info on installing Debian on an IBM thinkpad 380XD?

Check the www.debian.org mailing list page. I believe there has been a new mailing list started just to handle laptops.

With my 365XD and Hamm, I had to use the tecra rescue disk. I'm not sure if that disk is still with slink. If it is, try that. --- Tower Visit my WindowMaker page at http://www.cs.mun.ca/~gstarkes/wmaker/ "You can twist perceptions, reality won't budge." -Neil Peart, Rush, "Show Don't Tell"
Debian on IBM thinkpad 380XD
Anyone have info on installing Debian on an IBM thinkpad 380XD? I'm installing the latest 2.1 version, and not having much luck with the rescue disk. It comes to the "boot:" screen. I press enter, and then it reboots the system. Repeats with different rescue disks on different thinkpads (all 380's).
