Zamri, Thanks for your suggestion. I am using a two floppy drive setup, 2 NE2000 network cards and only 16M of RAM. I tried unplugging the network cables and I still get the kernel panic. I even tried regenerating the boot disk with a new downloaded image copy. Again kernel panic.

What I encountered is, the system works fine if I unplug the network cable but will pop-up the kernel panic messages if I plug the cable on NIC. Maybe anyone on the list could explain this :) I still don't know the exact problem why this was happen ( since using all this NIC on M$ machine works just fine ) My system was IBM 300PL with pentium II 350Mhz and 128MB RAM. Problem NIC was D-Link 538TX with rtl8139 chipset.
