Thx a lot fellas No, those are old isa-cards I believe. You probably don't need any of those drivers. You should just go on, maybe disable some of the scsi controllers. Further along it will say it found pccard slots and ask if you want to use them as installation media. If you want to do a network install answer yes here and follow the instructions, otherwise just answer no and enable the pccard daemon later when the system is all up and running.
