No, it's a laptop, and has no place for a cdrom. But that wouldn't

impossible to get X to work because it needs a cpq_avga driver for
the mono LCD screen. I had redhat installed previously and X worked
with that, but it's way, way too slow to use. And knoppix also can't
get my wifi card to work either, even tho it now loads the right
"prism2_cs" driver, it also seems to think it needs ndiswrapper. As
far as I'm concerned, knoppix is a total waste of time for this.
Ahh, it's a 486 *laptop*. Definitely time to stuff the hard drive in another
box and do the install there, using i386 software instead of i686 software.
Do you really need this old beater to stay alive, or would it be easier to
upgrade your way out of the difficulties?
