Some years ago, I bought an
IBM-refurbished Thinkpad T42, meaning to
devote it to use with a Garmin UPS, under
Linux of course. It turned out not to be
suitable for that.
I put it into the guest room, where
it also got little or no use. Until last
week, it still had Fedora 22. I've been
trying for days to get F26, or 25, or even
24 onto it.
It demanded an i386, 32-bit .iso;
and I did finally manage, after a lot of
grief, to get it to seem to finish an
installation. Upon rebooting, it says only
that it can't boot what it has!
As a last resort, I've been looking
for a Puppy Linux version. The download
page offers versions for Ubuntu (which
affects me like sand in the teeth),
Slackware (which I've never even seen
running), and M$. Oh, and also for the
eeePC.
Is there hope??
