I've acquired a Toshiba Satellite Pro 430CDT laptop and
would like to install Linux on it... but it isn't
capable of booting to a CD, and the CD and floppy
drives fit into the same, single bay. So I can use one
or the other, not both (don't have a connector cable).
How can I 1) create a install disk to begin an
install, and 2) swap out to the CD and have it
recognized to run the install? Or am I going at this
wrong? How can I install to such a machine?
Could I perhaps install a minimal system on a floppy,
boot to it, set up the hd, copy the minimal system to
the hd, then boot with the CD in and run the install?
Thanks!!
