Help.
Hi, I am having problems putting linux on my tosh 70ct.
I have seen lots of advice about using a pcmcia cd-rom but i cant seem to
get it to work. Have tried the following but with no luck.
Redhat 5.01 - copied disc to hd but keeps asking for supp disk.
Mandrake 7.0 - copied to hd but keeps asking for ramdisk then crashes.
Caldera 2.3 - copied to hd but says that tosh not supported.
Can anyone tell me how to get linux into my tosh.
