I can't find a lance module, so I guess you mean sunlance.
Sorry, I meant sunlance.
What exactly do you mean by "both boots"?
Does the NIC get detected automatically by the installer or not?
If it does get detected by the installer, it should automatically add the
module to /etc/modules for the installed system. Could you check if it is
listed in that file?
All of my hardware in the SS5-70 is detected automatically by the 2006-12-16 floppy images.
The
older floppies would not automatically detect the onboard ethernet chipset (sunlance), so I had to choose the module manually during the install after it failed to detect any networking hardware.
When I was doing the installs on the SS20, I had to manually choose an ethernet chipset module and the SCSI module. This was with floppies older than the 2006-12-16 images. I will retest the SS20 with the latest floppy images tonight.
