Excellent idea!!;)

I've got 4 (older P166's) Tpads with Linux only... they all work fine.

Good luck,

[newbie] Linux on a Thinkpad?

[Merlin Zener]

Hi,

have any of you folks put Linux on a Thinkpad?
I've got an A21E - 600Mhz, 256Mram 800x600lcd. I noticed that when I got
it there were two partitions set up on the HDD - one is [I think] about
8G or so which has the IBM setup files etc on it; the rest came
pre-installed with WIN2KPRO. I've never needed the preload stuff so I
was wondering about deleting it and putting Linux on there and set it up
as a dual boot like my desktop now.

Good idea?


TIA
