Here's the summary: You need a PC with a FDD and CDROM drive, a 3.5" to 2.5" HDD cable converter, a floppy disk, and a USB hub, keyboard, and mouse to connect to the tablet during installation. 1) DL a win98 boot disk image from bootdisk.com and make a disk. 2) Install the HDD in the PC using the cable adapter. 3) Boot the PC using the win98 boot floppy. 4) Use fdisk to partition the HDD. Format it (it will be FAT32). 5) Copy system files from the boot floppy to the HDD using the sys command. The HDD will now be bootable. 6) Take out the boot floppy and reboot the PC to its normal operating system. You should be able to see your newly partitioned and formatted HDD in the "my computer" window. 7) Put the Win2K install CD into the CDROM drive and copy the i386 directory to the new HDD. Copy all the Fujitsu tablet specific driver files to the HDD as well. 8) Shut down the PC, remove the new HDD, and install it in the tablet. 9) Boot the tablet. Run C:\i386\\winnt.exe and win2K will install itself. If you want to watch DVDs on the tablet, convert to NTFS because it has bigger file size limits than FAT32. After that you load the drivers. I'll post details on my web page in the next day or two.
