[K12OSN] [OT] Linux on TC1000 tablet PC

[jessemcdonnell at comcast.net]

I'm trying to help one of our students get linux dual booting on their Compaq TC1000 tablet (Transmeta processor). The hard drive install from the Knoppix 3.7 cd worked fine after disabling pcmcia initiation. Using lilo with the NT bootloader, the kernel loading doesn't complete - I get a series of dots and then it stops (partially loaded kernel).  

Anyone on the list have a tc1000 working and/or any suggestions? 

Thanks!

PS: Tried the K12LTSP-4.2.0 install but it didn't boot either. It also couldn't identify the monitor so I went back to knoppix/debian.
