There MAY be a problem with the boot sector crossing a 1024 cyl bound, not sure if scsi has this problem. Just to be sure I'd do the following... 1: win 95 2: /boot ext2 linux 10-50meg 3: swap 127 megs (no swap may exceed 128mb, but you can have more than one. Rummor has it that swap partitions work better if near the front of the disk) 4: extended 5: linux 6: ... whatever >Other hardware: >- realtek 8029 PCI ethernet card (the installer can't >find the module to install this card in the installer) you will have to configure the module by hand. Use ne2000-pci What I did (installed off cd rom) was to NOT specify any configuration, and let it drop me into dselect. I selected the multi-cd method, put the SECOND cd in and did an UPDATE available packages, then put the FIRST cd in and REPEATED that step. Then I skipped the SELECT phase and went right to the INSTALL (all the required and recommened packages for a bare install were allready selected). After that I read the dselect manual to learn the keystrokes and then added stuff a little bit at a time. Once you have it figured out dselect ain't bad, and you'll wonder how redhat users can stand having to use RPM! ===== Amateur Radio, when all else fails! http://www.qsl.net/wa2mze Debian Gnu Linux, Live Free or ..... __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
