Other Help Topics :: Thinkpad 360P 1993

I am the proud owner of a1993 IBM Thinkpad 360P. I wanted to boot DSL version 0.8.2 but I couldn´ t boot from my external freecom traveller 224E cdrom drive. I have tried it with a pcmcia card (no cardbus),but DSL couldn´t
scan my cdrom. Which is the right pcmcia driver for my cdrom.? I can´t figure out, what driver works.I can change to a parallel printerport with the same cdrom by changing the wires, I also have a netgear pcmcia 10/100 fast ethernet card.
I appreciate any help.
Thank you very much in advance.
