mark, thanks for your reply. i am have a 3com 3c905B-TX card as well as a Kingston 10/100 card that is an NB2000 clone. they both show up in /proc/pci, however i was unable to install the drivers for either. i have just finished loading the base system from disk and was planning on using ftp to get the rest of the o.s. however now i am in a catch-22 situation as i cannot see the network. is there any way to try to install
the drivers without going through the installation again? thanks in advance, //daryl Mark H.
