Hi, I just went through the same trouble yesterday with a Dell 2650 PowerEdge. I was able to successfully boot from the 2.4 boot floppies, but then I had to compile the bcm5700 driver on a separate machine using the bcm5700-source package. This was a major PITA, because I didn't at first realize that I had to compile with "--append-to-version -bf2.4" or something like that. Also, the "Load foreign modules" option on the BF didn't seem to work, so I had to copy the driver to the target installation.
To sum up, I also would like to request that bcm5700 be compiled as one of the boot-floppies modules by default. (No RAID on our system, so at least I got to avoid that trouble.) -- Kevin McCarty Physics Department [EMAIL PROTECTED] Princeton University www.princeton.edu/~kmccarty Princeton, NJ 08544 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
