Re: Intel 10/100 VE and eepro100

Greetings-

Setting up a new computer (an IBM NetVista) that has an Intel 10/100 VE
adapter built in, I'm unable to use a net install.

What I did was to burn a CD with the vanilla kernel setup, and boot to it.
I can boot fine, but when I try to load the eepro100 module, I get
"init_module: no such device" or "init_module: device or resource busy".
Without that, I can't start the network, so I can't do the net install.

Any advice on this? I thought eepro100 would work, even if e100 is
probably the ultimate better choice.  e100 is available only as source, so
I can't use it to do the net install (right?).


I thought that the 2.4bf image had both? If so, you should be able to do the net install that way. Might want to give that a try...
