I noticed that the GENERIC kernel config file only lists ISA Ethernet Card ADDRESSES & INTERUPTS. My KERNEL seems to recognise the card at "ed2" at bootup, even though it is not in the KERNEL config file. The following problems seem to be occuring : 1. The routing table "netstat -r" is not automatically adding the localhosts Ethernet hardware address as it does when I use an ISA card. eg. destination gateway Nitif hostname 00:40:05:34:bb:d4 lo0 2. When I telnet to any other host on my network, the networking is very slow ( it seems to temporarily hang every few seconds ). 3. Manualy Adding the local Ethernet hardware address to the routing table does not solve the slow ethernet problem. Can anyone help ??? Thanks & Regards, Brendan...
