standard etch install linu-image-2.6.15-1-486


1) I Follow up. I restored the system to prior state, and rebooted multiple

times and now eth0 comes up. I dont know what was wrong before... 
You can ignore it.

2) Why doesn't debian kernel linux-image-2.6.15-1-486 enable highmem to 4GB. A
1GB memory card (or 2 x512)is very common these days.

3) I now understand the difference between setting up a 64 bit kernel and
selecting k8 optimization kernel. 

I still think there is a need for
linux-image-2.6.15-1-k8  and linux-image-2.6.15-1-k8-smp in 386 tree of debian...

Thanks for your help,
