Hi, I've installed 2.2.8 and 3.1 on a Thinkpad 390.
It works great for most of the hardware. (console,
disk, cd, etc.). It all installed in a snap from
floppy and for 3.1 right off of the Walnut Creek
CD.

The detection of the PCIC is a little flakey. If I cold
boot, it will detect the controller as some VLSI chip,
whereas it is really some TI, PCI bridge. 
I'm also working on getting the Xircom driver working.

The internal modem is special and will therefore cause
problems, but that isn't too great of a concern for me
just yet.

Other than that, it compiles kernels and runs everything
else nicely. Once the networking issues are worked out,
it will be very usable.
