A ThinkPad T42 with a Pentium M and a Radeon 7500. The goal is to get
|
|
|
|
Windows 98SE installed on it, to deprecate the virtual machine that I
|
|
|
|
sometimes use for nostalgia purposes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The setup is far from easy and backups are being done by archiving
|
|
|
|
the entire drive on `falcon`, my main desktop, via an IDE-to-USB adapter
|
|
|
|
I bought specially for this project.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If it truly fails, I might end up installing Windows 2000 SP4 on it instead.

This was copied over to the laptop from a ThinkPad X23 running Windows XP
|
|
|
|
over infrared, at about 8kbps, as neither Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Ethernet or USB
|
|
|
|
worked, and I was not equipped to try RS232.
