Subject:   Installing via PCMCIA NE2000 NIC

Hello:

I'm messing around with an old laptop (Gateway Colorbook 486DX4/75, 12MB
RAM, 800MB HD, PCMCIA NE2000 NIC {Linksys}) by trying to install the
latest snapshot of 4.0 on it.  I want to install via the NIC because the
system doesn't have a CDROM.  During boot up, it seems to start the
PCMCIA controller driver okay, and it alleges to probe the cards, and it
doesn't complain.  I do a novice install, partition and all that, but
when I tell it I want to do an FTP install, I don't have ed0 as an
option.  How do I tell the install to properly see my NIC?
