Sorry for late response.  I have the sony PCG Z505LS, and I had no
problems booting off the cdrom (you need to get the sony pcmcia one for
$250 or the dvd one for $450), they are both bootable, else boot from
floppy and install over netowrk.

Jason

ps, I had no problems with anything (this is 4.3 stable though), ethernet
worked, sound card worked (after redoing kernel), mouse worked (but not
the double tap on the glide area).
