Has anyone had any luck installing W98SE on a Compaq 2105US Laptop?
If so, what problems did you have to overcome?
Were you able to correct these problems?

Any info will be appreciated.

The laptop has Ubuntu on it now.
Yes, it will be a clean install.
I may run dual boot with Ubuntu but I don't think so.

there shouldn't be any issues as long as you use a legal uncorrupted disk
