I'm using the floppies method. The problem is the computer can't contact the server to do the downloads. The network card is working - I can ping from a linux machine. My connection to the Internet is ok. I'm sure I've configured the gateway, nameserver entries ok. Can anybody offer tips, how to go about debugging the problem? Thanks, Martin.
