What kinda of hard disk size does it have ?I mean would ubuntu even
fit it is not one of the smallest foot print.I would recommend using
something like puppy linux or feather linux.

Any ways best to try and do a network install (ftp) it would be the
easiest, you can try an install using a serial cable  but i don't
think anyone even support that naymore.
You can also buy  cheap enclosure and install it on another PC.

Best Regards Laurent.

PS:Got any laptop to sell ?
