Hi! I'm yet another "trying to install linux on an old laptop" user  It's an Acer Note Light with about 1GB hdd, 120mhz and I'm not sure how much ram (should be about 32mb though).
It can't boot from CD, has no floppy but does have a pcmcia LAN card.
Because it has Win95 on it, I was able to do a Loadlin Install by following the Wiki.
So I'm also using the options:
| Code Sample |
linux24
root=/dev/ram
rw
initrd=minirt24.gz
vga=normal
ramdisk_size=100000
init=/etc/init
lang=us
apm=power-off
nomce
noapic
quiet
BOOT_IMAGE=knoppix

Thing is, after going through xsetup.sh, when it tries to start X, I a blank screen then the following errors:
-----------------
sed: /opt/bootlocal.sh: No such file or directory
/usr/sbin/kbdconfig: line 50: /opt/bootlocal.sh: No such file or directory
chown: /opt/bootlocal.sh: No such file or directory
chmod: /opt/bootlocal.sh: No such file or directory
-----------------
I have no idea how to fix this.. before I started getting these errors, the first error I ever got was:
modprobe: modprobe: can't locate module fb0
X10: fatal error 104 (Connection reset by peer) on x server ":0.0" after 0 requests
But after messing around the xsetup options, that error mysteriously disappeared and now all I get is the file not found errors.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Kristy
