Hi there. I'm trying to install the latest release, and I'm having fairly
large problems. First, my network card is detected by the probe at boot time
(it finds it as ed2), but when it comes time to install, ed2 is not shown in
the network-capable devices. Second, I tried to get it to install from a
MS-DOS partition, but it can't find the partitions. Granted, I'm using the
OSR2 version on Win95, so it might not recognise the partition as being a
DOS partition. My computer's configuration is:
Pentium II 266 with 64 megs of SDRAM, an 8.1 gig EIDE and a 2.1 gig
EIDE, a 24x ATAPI CD-ROM and an ATAPI Zip drive. The network card is a
Realtek RT L8029 PCI Ethernet PnP Adapter (in IRQ 10). I have two serial
ports, a parallel port, two USB ports, a PS/2 mouse and keyboard ports and a
Sportster 56k PnP Modem.
Any help with this would be GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Jim Garlick
