Would this be any relation to a T4600?  I've got one sitting beside me.  I
haven't been able to get it to boot via floppy, but my only attempt so far
is to insert an OS/2 install disk (that turned out to be bad).  Shouldn't be
too big a problem to map whatever sectors the config lives in to a partition
and then not use it, as long as it's not in the bootsector or something.

Anyone have a T4600 running anything other than M$ windoze?
