This doesn't seem to work on my Toshiba Portege.  The 'Toshiba' splash
image comes up for a second, then disappears. The floppy spins for a
couple of seconds, the cursor goes off, and I just have a hung machine
with a black screen.  

Remove the smartboot floopy, and the machine boots back up into windoze.

Any other methods available?  

Thanks.

Regards,
Rich
