Garland, If you're running the ISA cards then it's the plain old ne.o driver that you need, along with 8390.o. ne2K was for PCI cards, I believe. If you have the ISA card software that should be a bootable floppy, and it can help you set the IRQ and IO addresses. I'm no longer running the ISA cards; I'm using PCMCIA in an old laptop. By the way, LRP is fairly fractured right about now, but the user-list in the cc list is the most active and covers most of the current distributions. You can access it through sourceforge. Best of luck, and let me know if there's more information you're looking for. I'll help if I can. Richard > Garland Oakes wrote: > > Below is a quote that you had in a message board.
