I have a Toshiba Portege 3500 tablet PC and would like to install FreeBSD on it alongside Windows. It has a PCMCIA CDROM drive and the only version of Linux that recognizes it is Mandrake (my least favorite distribution). Although the current Linux kernel supports this drive (evidently), the other distributions do not include drivers for it in the version of the kernel used for installs. Other Linuxen boot but cannot find the CDROM afterwards. 1. My question: does FreeBSD 5.2 support it? 2. My request (if the answer to 1 is yes): Can the kernel used in the install CD's (when they are made up) contain this support?Received on Wed Dec 10 2003 - 09:18:15 UTC
