I'm trying to find a way to install Knoppix on an old Toshiba laptop.

It does not have a CD-ROM drive. There is a floppy drive, and i do have a wireless card in it to connect to my other PC's.

Anybody have a clue about how to do this ? Point me in the right direction ?

Thanks in advance !

Try this one:

It is easy to make Bootdisk and get connection to CD-ROM on another PC.

I'll try that and report back later.

coolmos,

Let me know if you figure out a way to do this. I have a similar situation.
