I don't have a Satellite, but I do have the Portege S100. Everything
seemed to work right out of the box for both the Live CD and the
Alternative CD. I do know that the Alternative CD gives you some boot
options via the F keys. If you go with the alternative CD you might want
to check the boot options.
