looks like a bug in win 95/98 crashes a system that has been up more than 49 days -- but no one finds it because they always crash long before that anyway. http://www.zdnet.com/zdhelp/stories/main/0,5594,2238939-3,00.html Isn't there something similar in Linux? Except the limit is a bit over a ye

ftp install with funky NIC

1998-12-11 Thread Henry Kingman
Hey all, I'm attempting to install Debian via ftp on a Micron PII-267 but I can't seem to get ethernet working. The machine's motherboard is a PD440FX, and the NIC is an Intel 82557C-based Ethernet PCI 10/100. I think that's one of those ones that's right on the motherboard and thus part of Intel'
