Thanks Dave.
I'll give it a try, and check out the Ethernet HOWTO, as well. Recently,
I've been trying different combinations of jumpers on the card, along
with different command line settings (in the 'Select Net Modules' step of
the installation), such as io=0x300 irq=10 etc, but no success yet.

Hi,
Can anyone tell me if there's another way to get a network card module to
