In the kernel config I added the line "options vx0" as suggested from the LINT, but when starting up, the kernel didn't notice the board, so I tried to contigure the kernel, i.e. type a "-c" at the boot prompt, but in the network section only the usual serial and parallel port drivers appeared. The hardware is known to work perfectly as I tried it as a client under DOS. I'm running Snapshot with ctm 1873. What's wrong? -- Beck-Peccoz Amedeo GEA Software S.r.l.
