Although the kernel config editor works correctly, sysinstall doesn't. I presume the problem is related to the ThinkPad keyboard handling. Does anyone have a 2.2.6 (or similar) boot floppy that's compatible with the 750? Alternatively, how can I build a boot floppy without going through the entire `build a release' process? Looking thru the archives, I found something from HOSOKAWA Tatsumi in 1995, but things have obviously changed since then, because it doesn't work.
