Since : my CD/DVD drive is broken I am trying to do the install via ftp using the : pcmcia network card which is a 3Com 3CXFE575CT. However, during kernel boot I : do not see the card being detected. When I enter sysinstall, it prompts for : pccard settings. No matter which setting I use, the card is not detected. I : have two questions: : : 1) Is the 3Com 3CXFE575CT supported by the drivers supplied in the boot floppies? No. : 2) If not, how can I add the drivers I need to the boot process so my card : gets detected? You can't. : I checked the archives, but mabye I'm just not finding what I need. Any help : or links would be greatly appreciated! The 575 is a CardBus card. For that, you must have -current. There's no -stable MFC planned at this time. Too many other things would need to be mfc'd and I don't have the time to deal :-(.
