Ok. It worked! But now, while running linuxrc, I get the message: " modprobe: sis900 modprobe: Can't locate module sis900 ERROR! Failed to install the NIC driver module .......... ...... Kernel panic: Attempted to kill init! " What must i do? I think I must put sis900.o in some directory on the opt/ltsp/i386 dir.
