TP 560: Anyone booted from a pc hard drive?

[epbrown@enteract.com (epbrown)]

	I was just in Easy Setup and saw this option, and was wondering how
it works and if anyone's attempted it. I've got a 131MB pcmcia drive
sitting around, and I was thinking the best scheme for creating my
disks would be to put them all on this. I could simply create a boot
floppy with a file that includes the Maxtor MobileMax's point enabler,
then plug in the drive and install from there. This would be *much*
faster and simpler than creating all the diskettes, and take up a lot
less space.
	But, even the boot floppy could be eliminated if there's a way to
make a 701 boot from the pcmcia slot. This drive was the same type
used with the HP Omnibooks, so some systems can boot from them. Anyone
tried this?
