Hi there,
 
I've just downloaded the iso file of version 4.2.  I've uncompressed the file with WinImage and made the directory available on my ftp server in my lan.  I've created both diskette, kern.flp and mfsroot.flp.  My machine is a PIII 550 Inter with a Asus mainboard.  The two nic's are HP's chipset 82557.  I would like to install it through ftp but the nic doesn't seems to be detected since the only choice are parrallel or over a serial link.  I am use to do it with RedHat Linux.
 
Do you have any hint ?
 
Thanks in advance,
 
Benoit Dansereau
