I'm eagerly anticipating the arrival of my Libretto 110CT, and I'm trying
to figure out how I'm going to go about installing FreeBSD on it.  It
seems from LINT that the Libretto has some special kind of floppy drive
that requires certain kernel config options to use.  Also, I intend to do
a network install using a LinkSys PCMCIA ethernet card, so I'll need some
way of getting the pccard stuff onto the machine prior to installing the
full system.

It would seem to me that this could be done using customized boot/fixit
floppies, NFS, and some patience, but I'm quite clueless as to how to go
about this.  Or should I use a PAO installation floppy, and then cross my
fingers and attempt to upgrade to 3-STABLE?
