I think your out of luck.
With out a working hard drive, and limited to 3.5" floppies you just aren't
going to have room enough to load all the programs you would need. It use to
be that the Aussie Toshiba site had card and sockets that you could down
load. But the install program would not fit on one 3.5" floppy. What you are
looking for is old software for say a Toshiba T4XXX computer. an dos 5 or
dos 6.
Trying to do what you want to do is not going to be easy at all. Trying to
do it by just downloading
from the net, I think will be almost impossible. IMHO there just to much you
need to load in your config.sys to put on just one disk! Sorry. If I were
you I byte the bullet and try another hard drive. Chances are you got a
blown Hard Drive and not a bad controller. IMHO unless you pulled your Hard
drive while you Libretto was power up, or you went poking around the pins
with your screwdriver, chances are its your hard drive.
