Autodetection of the NIC did not work, but I could manually specify the network driver to load (xircom_cb). The problem is: Booting from the freshly installed disk the pcmcia service could not be loaded. The error message was /lib/modules/2.4.22-1-i386/pcmcia/i82365.o: \ unresolved symbol isapnp_find_dev_R27cb2cadTry modprobe isa-pnp.
This made the missing symbol go away, but the network stuff still did not load. Seems that there were several problems: - discover loaded i82365.o instead of i82092.o. Maybe this can be configured; I haven't checked. The workaround was to add i82092 to /etc/modules. - the pcmcia script was started _much_ too late in the runlevel procedure. After moving it from rc2.d/S20pcmcia to rcS.d/S37pcmcia (thats before ifupdown is called) it worked. The PPP stuff has been removed. Regards Harri
