heyho SLUG's,
I recently purchested this laptop, a FujitsuSiemans lifebook S series... and of course, i
would like to install linux on it ;)
It has no cd-rom, no floppy :)
Naturally tho it has all the other little nicetys, IRda, built-in Prism Wifi, Bluetooth...
It even has the drive bay for a cdrom which i'm yet to buy.
I've been playing round with other distribs for quite a while now, and finally want to give
debian a go (*hears screams of Joy from Geoff*).
The only way i can think to do this on this lappy would envolve a 'doze boot loader thing,
which i've only remember using once and cant remember the name.
Or using a distrib which has a 'doze installer, then taking it off and somehow using that
partition for linux.
Any ideas?
I'll bring it along to the meeting tonight.
On that note, is their a particular topic for the meeting tonight, excluding halloween :)
ta.
Tom
