That's a good new! I bet that RedHat is *not* as good
as the Caldera:
may be on your ThinkPad RH would have given relatively
much more
problems. RH's stupid Disk Druide is just one of many
RH's headaches,
Partition Magic was a happy workaround.

I hope Caldera works well also with ThinkPad 770
series, anyone has tried?

Meanwhile the ACP modem doesn't work?
