Puppy linux on the Libretto 50 CT
It has been a while since my last post, but I promise you to post more often…
I found a very usefull forum post on installing Puppy Linux on a Libretto 50CT (click on the link). Net to that, some intersting links, tips and how-to’s are posted there.
Take a look if you are interested.
Libretto u100 disassembly and hard drive extraction
To disassebmle libretto u100, use manual posted by some other user here:

First of all, the thing I loved most about that manual – is that all connectors have names and numbers!!! So, just read the manual carefully and you will find the connector you need by inspecting the computer. Note: because of that I will not talk about how to remove every single connector – that will just be repeating the manual. I will only mention those that were problematic or somehow special.
Another very important thing – this laptop is very small and has lots of small screws, which are not all the same. You must keep track of them so that it reassembles correctly. I did not, because I was too excited to gut my little friend, whom I love now down to his kidneys. But, again the manual comes to the rescue: they label every kind of screw, and the label embeds the length and color and flatness of the head. So, if you did not keep track of screws, but still have all of them – just read page 4-7 of the manual, and follow instructions for every step of disassembly.
Linux on the Libretto 50/70
In my neverending search for usefull links and other info about installing a Linux distro or other OS on your Libretto I found these 2 interesting links:
FreeBSD 4.10 & Xfree86 4.3.0 on Toshiba Libretto
Linux on the Toshiba Libretto 70
Both websites are very usefull for People like me: interested in installing exotic operating systems om exoctic hardware, but do not have the knowlegde to figure it out all by yourself.
On both pages you’ll find all the information you need about installing Red Hat Linux and FreeBSD on your own LIbretto 40 or 70.
