Hello,
okay, here it is:

rivers
I placed a link to it on the page
http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/HOWTOs_-_Driver_Installation
under the new heading "Storage devices (harddisk, cdroms)"
=46eel free to edit, discuss or move to somewhere else if you find a more=20
suitable place for it.
I do not understand the categories system, feel free to add the right=20
categories system. Should it be added to the T23 and T42 categories? Well=20
I only tested it there, but it should work on many other thinkpads,=20
possibly all but the olded ones.
Regards,
