The manual doesn't give an answer to my question. > No documentation? Nothing printed on the chips on the card, or no > access to google? I used the name of the card and google. But that's beside the point. I'll attempt rephrasing my question: was the 2.4 netinstall supposed to autodetect NICs? If it is, did I do something wrong when it didn't? And can I avoid it the next time. I know that the 2.2 compact netinstall would have autodetected the e100 card (because it has all NIC and disk drivers compiled in). The reason I didn't go with that is that I wanted a procedure with as few steps as possible (ie. a repeatable procedure I could make someone else follow), to create a computer with the ext3 file system, and a 2.4-based kernel, and a minimal debian woody. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
