Many thanks, Campo, to you, Paul Curtis, and David Jones for your
encouraging comments.  But I am still concerned about having to adapt
the config file for the ThinkPad alone environment and the
ThinkPad+Port Replicator environment.  I don't know how to do that, and
haven't been able to find any help in either the Redhat 5.2 or Caldera
OpenLinux books I have.

Yes, that seems a good idea - I could have a small FAT partition
between the HPFS and Linux partitions.  This would keep the two systems
 even more separate.
