Hi,
If I understood you right, you want to use your Laptop as a Webserver....
If that is really all, you have the possibility to install some kind of SuSE Linux 7.x per Floppys to your Laptop and after you configured the network you get the remaining packets per FTP and that simply should do the trick.....
Hope that it helps you,
Jan
