[Unattended] IBM Thinkpad X60

[Chris Liles]

I just got a new IBM Thinkpad X60 and I can’t get it to work L   I can get as far as getting dosemu to run and do the initial copy of the setup files, but after reboot it just sits there. I have checked the MBR with “ms-sys” and I get back x86 boot loader, unknown type. I have tried rewriting a win2k/xp bootloader to the MBR and tried chainloading from my grub boot cd, no dice.   If I install from a windows cd it goes just fine…   When using a cd to install windows I can check the MBR and I get back Microsoft 2000/XP/2000 boot loader…   Anyone have a X60 working with unattended or know what is going on?   I have tried putting the sata controller in compatibility mode, disabling the “pre-desktop” environment (restore partition) and disabling the security chip.       -- Chris Liles System Analyst Air2Web, Inc. 1230 Peachtree St. N.E. 12th Floor Atlanta, GA 30309
