Harddisk Upgrade
The T43 has a Problem with non-ThinkPad hard disks, so if you want to upgrade it you look at the mentioned page and/or use the Example of an update on a drive with unsupported firmware. It might work.
Booting
The T43 has a special PATA-SATA-bridge, not every LiveCD will work. This is unfortunately also true for the Gentoo 2008.0 LiveCD. Use Knoppix 5.x instead, this is also nice because you can use a GUI and browse the internet during the installation.
