Hi,

Today, I had to change out the network cards in a machine that had been running 
2.4 under woody. The old cards were Netgear cards that used the natsemi.o 
modules. I replaced them with two different cards that use the rtl8139.o 
modules. I then wiped the machine and started from scratch. The machine 
installed fine, but when I replaced the 2.2.20 with the kernel image for 
2.4.18, I lost the network!

I had a look in /lib/modules under 2.2.20 and 2.4.18 respectivly and there is a 
rtl8139.o in the 2.2.20 tree, but not in the 2.4.18 tree. I do not understand 
how I am to run my network cards if the driver is no longer in the 
distribution. Can someone advise me as to what I am missing please?

Keith.
