Jean and Sonya,
Thank you for the suggestion. The Linux Laptop Page, was a real help.
Also the suggestion of Debian. I tried installing that from CD and it
worked like a champ, where as the original distro I wanted still does not
boot from cd. <Shrug> used Debian before will use it again.
I did find out the A-drive problem was that the disk was mislabeled as
my boot disk.
Nick

the cd-rom does not recognize the Linux boot sector. I have found this to
be true also to some degree with the a-drive. When I do get it to boot,
there is a problem with the video, just going blank.

to slashdot, and freshmeat, and have not seen that much said, nor the
Toshiba website. Anyone know of any other good resources?
