Laptops :: Boot from PCMCIA - CF?

Hi,
I am running DSL on an old laptop without a HDD, Idealy i would like to do a frugal install to a CF card on the PCMCIA adaptor i have.
I have done this, however it is not bootable.. does anyone know where i could get a boot disk image that will allow me to boot from PCMCIA-HDD??
Thanks

your laptop BIOS has to support booting from it, see if you can select that in the boot options.

The laptop is a thinkpad 370z which unfortunatly dosn't support it in BIOS, is there a boot floppy that will allow me to do it?
Thanks

See this thread for information on a pcmcia boot floppy

the link for the bootfloppy is dead
