I don't have experience myself, but I find that the Linux-on-Laptops
site has plenty of collected experience. The one page it includes about
the Toughbook, http://users.libero.it/hpstr/cfm34-linux.html , indicates
you may be in for some ... fun. Once you can get it to boot Linux, it
seems that most things except for the audio should be OK. And since it
was written in 2003, even the audio may be workable by now.
(info for that is available at

There's another page available if your Italian is usable:

HTH.
