I just installed Mandrake 7, using the 7.0-2 CD, and had no
problems with the resizing. The internet setup, however....
I am having some serious problems with setting up @Home to
work with Linux. I have a D-Link DE220 ISA PnP Ethernet card,
and a Samsung cable modem. The problem seems to be with the
card itself. I set it up in hardware config, then go into network
config and set it up as said in a help file I found on the web
(http://www.mandrakeuser.org/connect/ccable.html)
However, when I restart the computer, it gives a 'FAILED' error on
attempting to load eth0. Any ideas?
Oh, I am using Cogeco @Home.
