Bryan,

Did you ever manage to create a boot floppy that will allow a live CD to boot 
from a PCMCIA drive? If so I would be intrested in an img file. I have an TEAC 
PCMCIA CD drive with a freecom cable, on an old laptop with a broken internal 
CD Drive. The only way to change the distro has been via a net install which is 
very boring. on a slow 10 Mbit/s PCMCIA Ethernet card. 

I want to try out Fluxbantu but can't get any installation method to work other 
than CD. In fact the only thing I have managed to get working is Damn Small 
Linux cuz I can boot that from a floppy and USB Key then install it to the HD 
(making the sound work was another 2 week epic). I did get Debian installed via 
FTP install but had trouble with fluxbox install and gave up.   

Thanks in advance for any help or advice you can give me.

Alan King.
