NASLite Network Attached Storage

Hi.
I'm hoping to use my old Toshiba Libretto as a tiny and silent NAS.
Would be cool as a portable NAS.

It has a 40GB 2.5" HDD, a P120 CPU, 16MB of RAM and SINGLE PCMCIA slot for either a FDD or a NIC - but not both at the same time.
USB wasn't invented (well, at least not implemented in this mini notebook) when it was made.
There is obviously no CD drive either (I use a "Backpack" parallel port CD drive to install CD software under Windows95 - slowly).

What are my options?

Wait for the v2.x HDD version?

Will NASLite work with PCMCIA NICs at all?
Will it work with the Intel 21143/2 10/100 card, the Xircom creditcard ethernet/modem card or the Kingmax 100MB cards I have (which all work fine in the machine)?

Any help will be appreciated?

Sounds like you're going to have to wait for v2.

I have been able to get v1 to boot from one of the hard drives, but I still need the floppy to store the config info. Only having one PCMCIA slot will be a problem in v1.

NASLite uses Linux ethernet drivers, so if Linux supports PCMCIA NICs then NASLite should as well.

Looks like I do have to wait for v2.
In the neantime, I tried loading the software on teh Libretto to learn about other issues. It started just fine form PCMCIA floppy, but ended up stopping with a "kernel panic" message, unable to find the boot disk, after it seemed to load the driver for the floppy drive and identifying it as a 1440kB type.
Any ideas why that might happen?
Cheers,
