Hello,
i hava a Toshiba 210CS without CD-Rom with Win98. I can connect a DB25 CD-Rom (freecom Cable II). I cannot boot from the CD-Rom, but I can install DOS with the freecom drivers. This laptop have a 3COM pcmcia card but I haven't xDSL connection.

I'd like to format my laptop to install DSL 1.4.

Can I boot on Win98 and load install from my boot CD ?

Thanks for all and sorry for my poor english, i'm a french guy.

Hello,
I close the topic. I will try to boot with a floppy and mount a CD-Rom drive on another PC. I will make a new topic.

Thanks.
