Played a bit with this tiny laptop.
Installation is a bit tricky on this Hdd only machine (VirtualBox helped a lot).

Probably the littlest machine that runs NS3.3 natively?

(page in french for now)

EIDE driver from beta floppy fails to boot with read multi errors, but Additional driver is OK.

Cool!  I've got one of these machines and might give it a try.  I'll see what babelfish does to your document.   :)

I see there's some ethernet PCMCIA drivers, have you gotten any of them working in the libretto?  I haven't looked for any wireless drivers yet.

I'll try a DLINK 660E (the only pcmcia ethernet card I have). One pcmcia card is listed on the driver list, maybe I'll make a new system image with more driver installed from an ISO under VirtualBox.
This machine (the libretto 100) is very impressive under NS3.3, much faster than VirtualBox on my AMD64 3200+
I also hope to install color video drivers (neomagic chipset).
