I am trying to install Woody from the ISO images, but am having trouble configuring my network card (which is connected to my cable modem).
When I installed Potato, the installation process had a dialog that prompted me to select and configure extra kernel modules - so I was able to get the ne2k-pci module working. Woody does not seem to have this dialog, it goes directly to the "dselect" screen. Is this normal? Or do I have a bad ISO image? I have been trying to manually install the module. "insmod ne2k-pci" generated some errors, but "modprobe ne2k-pci" seemed to work. I could then do a "lsmod" and see the module loaded. Then I ran "ifconfig eth0 netmask 255.255.255.0 eth0 xx.xx.xx.xx" which did not give me any errors. After doing that, I could not "ping 127.0.0.1" or ping my address specified in my ifconfig statement. Pinging 127.0.0.1 said "unreachable host" and pinging my actual address said "neighbor table overflow" (I think). Is there an easier way to do this? Was the kernel module dialog removed from Woody's installation process? I couldn't use Potato to upgrade to Woody, because it said "Perl 32 broken pipe" or something like that when I tried to upgrade by adjusting my sources.list file. I think I need Woody to support my videocard Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!
