Hi All: I've got an old 486 computer (Dolch PAC). It's what was called a semi-portable computer - requires AC power. It's housed in a ruggedized case and the only media it can use is a built-in floppy drive. It has two serial ports (mouse is on one) and a parallel port. It also has a network port, supposedly 10 MHz, but I haven't been able to get it working. The bus structure is ISA with room for two cards. It currently has Windbloze 95 on it. I would like to replace that with FC4 but don't have a way to do it currently. I was thinking of getting one of the CD-ROM external devices that uses the parallel port for communication (called a backpack originally). There are a couple of these on ebay but I'm not sure if it would work as the BIOS doesn't allow booting from anything except the floppy or hard drive. Anyone got a suggestion?
