>Description:
Using the default install disks, the system could not properly initialize the NIC (which it identifies as a RealTek 8029) with both processors in the system. The initialization failed with a message saying 'attach returned 2'. When the second CPU was removed, the problem was corrected and the install could be completed. Furthermore, a custom kernel had no trouble with both CPU's and the NIC installed. The platform in question is a Dual PPro 200/256K using the Intel 440FX/Nantoma chipset.
