I'll give it a shot I chose:(in order) put root.bin, linux.bin, rescue.bin from 2.4.18-bf. in /boot/newinstall change LILO restart U.K U.k keyboard initialise a already made swap initialise HDA5 (thats my new dedicated root partition 2gig) chose Ext2 (when something works well, stick with it, I say) exit installer and reboot go into Mandrake, extract 2.4.18-bf modules into new root partition on HDA5, restart installer go to ASH insmod pegasus network download options now work IT downloads floppy images IT downloads a base system, and it doesn't let me choose; Woody with a 2.2 kernel is to hard to configure with the pegasus network USB-->ETH connector It brings up Dselect and then tasksel .e.t.c. It does have a network package installed, but its to hard to configure DHCLIENT, I wish it worked like it does in the installer Other stuff you might want to know, its a broadband network connection; in the installer It configured it by asking the NTL DHCP server for relevent info, in mandrake I work it by using dhcpcd <--- Much better, and easier. But woody uses 2.2 which is alas,crappy as is DHCLIENT, does anyone know how to get DHCLIENT to query the NTL DHCP server for info so I can get it working, or alternatively get the 2.4.18-bf hard disk netinstall to download a 2.4 based stable system, or maybe a unstable system? === Lars -- ______________________________________________ http://www.linuxmail.org/ Now with e-mail forwarding for only US$5.95/yr Powered by Outblaze -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
