Fred, I recommend starting out by updating your LTSP installation. Using ltspadmin, you can install the latest updates. You just need to point ltspadmin to the main ltsp repositories. That would be: http://ltsp.mirrors.tds.net/pub/ltsp/ltsp-4.2/ It should show several packages that need to

Fred, does your Neoware happen to have a Via Rhine II NIC? Which kernel version are you using? I ran into problems with a Neoware e90 and the above NIC. I researched the kernel bug archives rather thoroughly, and discovered that they've been tweaking with the settings on these particular types o

Thanks John, I may have my terms wrong. I set the bios on the Neoware to enable the bootrom. It starts writing to the black screen just like my other non-Neoware PCs that work. It sends a dhcp request. THe server gives an IP, then the server does three tries of DHCPDISCOVER/OFFER with no succes

I may be wrong, but the mention of "PCI" leads me to suspect that the PCI LAN boot means that it will use a bootrom on the PCI LAN NIC. Is there such a ROM on your hardware? If not, then that would be consistant with your surmise that there is no NIC driver, but unfortunately that would mean you

A new kernel will solve the problem if your driver has been built into it. That is often the case with new hardware, but it depends on how new. Building it in yourself is the most comprehensive solution. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: >Sorry if this is a duplicate, I was haveing "suspicious header
