We have a decent laptop which runs windows (ick). I would like to be able to gear up to be able to run FreeBSD on the thing while I'm gone rather than fiddling with dos. In order to do this, I will probably need to do something like a JAZ drive for primary FreeBSD storage, since the thing's disk is full of other junk which I might need. Right now, I have no PCMIA cards for the thing. It's a toshiba Satellite Pro 586 with 20MB. My question would be, what PCMIA card(s) should I be looking at which can drive the JAZ drive, can it be setup to hold FreeBSD, and also what network/modem boards people are using successfully with FreeBSD. When Its my turn to have this thing, I wanna be able to whip out my disk and be up and running FreeBSD. Any suggestions? =============================================================================== Clay D. Hopperdietzel hoppy@appsmiths.com AppSmiths, Inc.
