I aim to install L-M on an IBM TP 380ED (P166, 80MB RAM, 5GB HD, 20x
CD-ROM) so my son and I can take a machine with us to a local group who
will be learning Linux. When I try to install, I get a screen I didn't
see when installing on my PC, also an older machine. It reads:
--------------
Please choose the mean of installation.
NFS Server
FTP Server
HTTP Server
Ok Cancel
--------------
Without a Network card, I get an error screen which reads:
--------------
No NET device found.
Ok
--------------
I checked my BIOS and find that the CD-ROM tests "Ok" (but that I don't
have the option to boot from the CD-ROM.) I'm guessing I need a driver
for this CD-ROM on my boot floppy but am not sure where to start; is
this what's going on?
Does anyone know of a way to circumvent this? This is my first
notebook. I could not find the manual on line at www.thinkpad.com. The
HD was just f-disk'd and formatted tonight; I can't even seem to
initiate the install for win98 (though that's what was installed when I
got it).
Thanks in advance,
Dave
