Installing SuSE 6.4 on IBM Thinkpad 755CD Model 9545

22 Sep 2000

      Help Please,

I'm trying to install SuSE 6.4 on an IBM Thinkpad 755CD.

The Thinkpad has 40Mb Ram and 5.2 Gb Hdd. It also has a removable CD
ROM/ FDD combination - I can either have the FDD or CD ROM drive in the
bay but not both! It also has a D-Link PCMCIA Ethernet card installed
(DE-660CT) which works under Windows '95 but not under Linux. I can get
an install (after a fashion) by running setup from the CD ROM but am
then unable to access the CD ROM drive.

Any ideas any one?
