Re: [newbie] 3COM Fast Etherlink

heh. Just find some sucker with a Win9x system and get 'em to make you a
boot floppy. Then, after it boots, run the PNPDSABL.BAT on the other floppy.
;-) That oughta fix THAT problem (Once in awhile a DOS/Win boot floppy comes
in handy, even with a Linux system G)

 On the disk that came with my adapter, there was a file called
"pnpdsabl.bat"
 that had to be run from the MSDOS commandlineIf you don't have DOS
 installed somewhere on your PC, this probably won't help you

It worked :-)))
Thanx for all help. Yeah!


On one of the disks that came with the card is a utility to disable the PnP
abilities of the card. The program is called pnpdsabl.bat. It must be run
in
MSDOS mode.

The Venus installer allows you to set up this card during the installation
process--I believe it is the last 3COM card listed and it's nicknamed
"Boomerang."  It's listed under 3c900, in any case.


I did, but it could'nt probe...

Best bet is to re-install and set up your card during the process.


I did that too...nothing changes...

In Windows, it uses I/O Range 6500-643f. Where do I put it in Linuxconf /
netcfg ? Maybe I'll just change the card with other type. Thanx for the
hints.

Or you could just run 'netcfg'

 hmmm, I have that card (3COM 3c900b) on my dual-boot NT/Mandrake (Venus)
 box.  It's an excellent card.
