Okay this is a long shot, but I will ask anyways.

Does anyone have any experience setting up NetBSD ix86 on a Fujitsu
FMV-Biblo MCVIII23 notebook computer?  It is a very tiny handheld
notebook with a Pentium 233 MMX, 64 MB of Ram, 2 MB NeoMagic 128XD
video card, 800x600 touch screen active matrix LCD (with pen and
regular laptop mouse stick), 3102 MB hard drive, ES1879 sound card,
Fujitsu LB RWModem V.90 56 kbs (not sure if it's a real or win-modem),
IrDA (infrared), 2 USB ports, a single PCMCIA slot, and a Japanese
keyboard.  Externally it comes with a port replicater, a portable
floppy drive, and a USB mouse.  (It is a very new handheld computer
not "offical" available outside Japan.)

My co-worker just picked it up for me cheap (~US $1300) in Hong Kong.
Needless to say it is an cool and powerful machine for its size.  It
comes with MS Windows 98, which I immediately erased in hope of
installing NetBSD on it.  Unfortunately my initial attempts to do so
were not very successful.  The 1.32 install floppy can't even detect
my 3Com 3C589 PCMCIA ethernet card, or my Adaptec 1460B PCMCIA scsi
card, or the internal modem.  And to make matters worse, its design
makes it very difficult to remove the hard drive for coping NetBSD
directly onto it, and I would very hesitant to open it up, since I am
in Canada and it can only be serviced in Japan.  So I am not even sure
how I should go about getting the NetBSD onto the drive, without
resorting to removing a large amount of NetBSD disk space for a Windows
partition that would act as a staging area for the NetBSD files.

Also I know that NetBSD-Current has USB support?  Does this include
any USB drives?  And Linux has IrDA support to transfer files, but I
don't remember hearing anything about this for NetBSD.  What about
win-modems?  And as a side question, does NetBSD or X-Free have any
support for pen based touch screens?

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.  It would be so cool to
run NetBSD and X on a full feature computer smaller than many of the
new MS-Windows CE (HPC) that were recently released.

Thanks in advance.  Sincerely, Alicia.
