So am I, cos I just read the article in Sysadmin magazine :-)

I see that Lucent Orinoco wireless cards are supported (both being from
Bell Labs I find this quite surprising :-) and the machine I'm intending
to use doesn't have anything else weird in it.  The only thing that
might give me trouble is that it has a PCMCIA floppy and no CDROM.

Here's hoping I can boot off the floppy, then unplug it, plug in a
network card, and do a network install.

I assume that 16Mb RAM is sufficient for basic use?
