I can't say about this... the only other OS that's been on it is Win2k...
and that was short lived once I got a hold of it.  But I'm sure it's a
firmware issue though.  I haven't felt quite right since that bad checksum
showed up for the ROM image so I'm curious what a code 660 means.

Would it matter that I used the ARC to flash the SRM console?

I'm pretty sure it a 21043 based card.  The install kernel does let me set
up de0 but it never finds the FTP.  Is there a way to just give an IP
instead of selecting from the list?  To see if it's just not finding the
nameserver.

Thanks,
Charlie
