I downloaded an *.iso file (pclinuxos-p81a-liveCD)
successfully and I burned a CD from it.
The CD runs fine on my computer 586 which has Win98 on it.

However, the LiveCD has only the Generic Printer (SGENPRT)
installed and I would like to install or to activate my HP Deskjet 890C on the pclinuxOS, because right now I cannot print anything using the Pclinux Operating System.
In WIN98 is fine, but not PclinuxOS.

Your help on how to achieve that would be very much appreciated.
Or is it at all possible to add another printer on a LiveCD system? Because I would prefer, for the time being, not to install PclinuxOS on my hard drive, if possible.

Thanks for your help:
Charles.
