    thinkpad 650x install HELP (no cdrom, no floppy)

    is it possible to install knoppix on the hard drive?

    it currently runs windows 95.. the bios is too old so it won't boot to a usb device.. it does contain a pcmcia 3com 3cxe589ec ethernet card, but i can't seem to get it to boot from the knoppix terminal server.. maybe i'm doing this incorrectly.

    is there any other way? i thought about trying to install lilo and then copy the image of knoppix on the second partition somehow (ftp while in windows), but i couldn't find any docs on how to install lilo (or grub) from windows.

    any help would be appreciated..
