Hi, Is anyone using a cdrom with the portege 3010/3015/3020/3025 ? I'm considering buying a pcmcia cdrom or pcmcia cd-rw and am curious about the booting...

I just searched the archives for anything dealing with '3505' and found nothing. I'm currently running RH 8.0 on a 3505. I can't find any specs for the...
I used a "PORT" pcmcia cdrom drive with my Portege 3020ct but had quite a hard time getting it to boot. The only distro I was able to get to boot from cdrom...

Well, here goes: I've got a Portege 3010CT, with a Panasonic KXL-807a PCMCIA CD-ROM drive. I'm attempting to install RedHat 8.0. Everything goes swimmingly...
Phillip, Enter the BIOS and change the PCMCIA mode to "compatible" or "PCIC." It should work after that. The toshiba cardbus bridges have always been pretty...
Alex, Thanks for the info -- it does boot properly now from the CD, and no longer locks up during PC Card init. However, it still doesn't recognize anything...
Hmmm... I had the same problem with redhat 8 when I tried to install it on my desktop PC. I assumed my iso burns were bad, but I never got it to work so I...
Ahhh -- I imagine that's a possibility, although it seems like a serious omission on the part of RedHat. How was the Phoebe install? Did you run into the same...
I never did get redhat on my portege 3020ct. I ended up using mandrake 8.2. It loaded on less than 2gig. ... -- Maryjane R. Eldred...

... This is to note that RH8.0 installs fine on a tosh 3110ct, if you boot up from the cd, which is done by pressing "c" during boot. I'm using it now (the ...

Hi all, I'm tying to build and run the latest version of xine (lib v 1.0 beta 4, ui v .98) on my portege 7200 on RHL 8.0. I'm able to build it just fine, and...
Wow! What a tremendous response! Thanks, everyone, for getting back to me so quickly. I ended up using the HD route (copying all three ISOs, etc) as I could...
I just did the same install (Vector SOHO 3.0) the same way, copying the install stuff to a spare partition. It went real well, and configured everything...

I think they are both the same. In the BIOS, setting the pcmcia mode to cardbus will set it to cardbus mode. setting it to PCIC compatible sets it into...
So, my pcmcia problems aside (although, I guess, if my cd-rom drive worked I might not be having this trouble) I got rid of my dos partition, monkeyed my hard...

Thanks, William. Yes, that's what I thought I'd end up doing, but it seems like quite a bit of trouble, doesn't it? Oh, well. I use my Linux machine...
Well, the resolution to the below problem was fairly simple: throw money at it. I purchased a 64MB slice of RAM the other day, UPS showed up with it today,...

... yep, I use my 7200 to show videos (mpeg1, divx). Performance is ok, but not extraordinary. This is almost certainly linked to the video drivers. I also ...
