While we are lamenting about the rescue disk nuking ethernet cards, I had a DLink-250 that the rescue disk would disable (changed the EEPROM somehow). I forget the exact details but I do know that during boot Linux can FRY (permantly harm) those DE-250 cards, it damages the eeprom in some way that the setup programs will not rewrite it. I forget what I did to fix it, I think I moved the base address. Jason -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
