Went back into kernel config & took out isa entry
for ed1 & entered info under pcmcia nic's for the
linksys 10/100 lan card under ed0. Did the make
depend, make & make install & everything seemed
to go okay, but really won't know for sure til I
get back home from offshore job, plug into my
network & check everything out. Still, something
must be better, since I'm no longer getting that
error message. I think my ignorance of the right way
to setup the card is what caused the problem. Just
assumed, since I could communicate with other puters
in my LAN & get on the Internet, that everything was
setup right automatically on install. Have to get out
of this windows mind (mindless) set. :-) Thanks for
the tip & info.
