I have a Toshiba Libretto 50 which I want to install Linux to. It does
not have a CD Rom, only a PCMCIA floppy which is configured in the BIOS.
Can I install Red Hat Linux from floppies and where do I get "images"
from? Will I be able to "hot swap" PCMCIA devices? Will I be able to use
my Nokia 5110 Digital phone to access the internet as I can currently do
under windows?

Any further help from someone who has installed Linux to this laptop
would be greatly appreciated.

Regards, Chris
