Puppy Linux on the IBM ThinkPad T42
I only gave a quick shot at the beast, but it did work out pretty well. It didn't work out of the box, however. kernel: 2.6.31.5 (Puppy) hardware: IBM ThinkPad T42 error message: initrd boot error "pup-431.sfs not found" solution: remove 'pmedia=usbflash' from syslinux.cfg other remedies to try: kernel command line: add 'acpi=force' and 'pci=noacpi' BIOS: turn off Fast Boot
