Here is the situation: I have a laptop that is very hard to install to. I installed slackware to it once from a zip drive successfully. I tried to get RH5.2 to install the same way from a jazz drive, but it didn't work. I have an adaptec PCMCIA SCSI card for the laptop. I also have another desktop computer. Using it, I installed RH5.2 to the Jazz drive through an Adaptec SCSI card. I'm wondering if it is possible to use the same jazz drive, with a different boot disk on the laptop. If so, how would I create this boot disk. It it's not possible, is there an easy way to get linux to the laptop(I was thinking through a serial cable?) I'm not sure why the jazz drive install didn't work, I tried a few different ways, it either couldn't find the RedHat directory, or couldn't mount it (after I chose the packages). If I have to install that way I'll just use slackware which was pretty easy last time. Another think: The laptop only has a 250meg HD. So I might try Debian (I've heard it is the best where space matters). Any suggestions? Thanks in advance - you don't have to answer all the questions here, but if you could point me to a good web site or other info source would be great.
