1 Abstract
This is a work in progress. I am trying to compose an entry for the great www.linux-laptop.org site, so other people can easily follow these instructions and install GNU/Linux OS on their !?LS50a notepad.
This notepad is a great machine that serves me fairly. I don't know how I will talk after something breaks, but so far it just works.
