The Thinkpad 770 which crashes when I try to use a USB hard drive with BL2 
works with  Puppy, Tinycore, and DSL Linux (2.4.31 kernel) so I just need 
to fix my 2.4.31 kernel to work.

I tried to report this using tinycore itself but, although I booted it 
with flag 'laptop' and it loaded pcmcia modules including serial_cs, I 
could not find any dialing program.  Copying over eznet and pppd and 
various config files did not help.  Like DSL linux, everything requires 
sudo.  sudo eznet up 0

A 2.6 kernel might still be needed to run BL in a computer with SATA hard 
drive (even with BL on an IDE drive).
