Heya SLUG.
Thought I'd throw this one out there, because I know it's come up at various
InstallFests.

Basically, we've come across a 486 laptop that we'd like to get linux onto,
and use as a terminal.  The machine has no CD-ROM, and won't have any
ethernet until I can afford a PCMCIA network card.

The current plan is to either hack up a debian install disk with PPP, or use
a rescue disk like tomsrtbt to put the base packages on to the hard drive.

Any suggestions?

There are very few starts.  Oh, some things seem to be beginnings.
The curtain goes up, the first pawn moves, the first shot is fired  
(probably at the first pawn) - but that's not the start.
