Subject: Problems installing Linux on ThinkPad i1300


> I just tried to install Linux on an IBM ThinkPad i1300. I am trying to
> install RH linux 7.1.
>
> The system is new and I have not even tried to boot into windows. I am
> booting off the Linux CD #1.
>
> The processor is a Celeron and there is no floppy drive.
> It gives a message - no floppy drive (type 15) (usb ?) or something like
> that.
>
> The system just hangs after "running /sbin/loader".
>
> How do I get it working ?
>
> Thanks.

> PS : When I tried to install Debian, it allowed me to partition the HD but
> then I found that the kernel version on the official CD's 2.2. I prefer
> Redhat anyways.
>
> PS #2 : RH 6.1 CD's boot correctly and the install there is successful.
