I'm sure it could be done, it may well have been done, and you may well Google it up. Most ack the wireless tools to configure it, however if you have a compatible Linux distro somewhere I dare say you could copy the missing bits on a floppy disk would work. I'd suggest kick starting with a wired install. Then again a laptop without a CD driver sounds either very small or very archaic.... -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQE/Ik7lGFXfHI9FVgYRAsnXAKCxPgWLFC15p9FA7kZUgXJGWjBqfACgn6i7 3Su4ukSK74QMImSOZ0rqPJo= =Clqh -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG Mail majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxx with "unsubscribe list" in the message body to unsubscribe.
