The Compaq Evo N400c is an extremely small, full-featured, and durable little notebook. This HOWTO will describe how I installed Caldera Openlinux Workstation 3.1.1 (COL WS 3.1.1) on a Compaq Evo N400c, including details of setting up XFree86, PCMCIA services, networking, sound, and APM. I will refer to the omputer as the N400 or the Evo throughout.
