[ltp] Mandrake 9.0 & Thinkpad 380Z

[linux-thinkpad@linux-thinkpad.org]

I just flashed my 380 Pentium BIOS with 380 PII BIOS and 
changed the MMC-1 processor card with a PII 266 MMC-1 I 
bought on ebay. I even tried a Celeron 400. Didn't work! 
no boot!

I'm not sure if your thinkpad has a MMC-1 module. Check 
the hardware maintenance manual. I used it as a dis and 
reassembly guide.
