I'm doing the install...got my drive partitioned all nice. But, it seems
that my network card is not supported. It's a Linksys Instant EtherFast
Series card. (LNE100TX V5.1). One forum I read online said to boot with
'bf24' option from the cd, rather than just hitting enter. Didn't seem to
help.
When I look at the network modules, I don't see any that resemble this card.
Anyone know where to get them? Or, if this card is nothing-but-trouble for
linux, can someone suggest another card for me to purchase? I've not had
any problems with this card under RedHat or Mandrake. And I _thought_ the
card in my other (debian) linux box was the same one.
Anyone else using this card and debian?
