Re: Installing Woody using IBM EtherJet PCMCIA
Why not acquire a $5. Debian CD and install from it? It will be handy
to have in any case.
When I load Debian 2.2 or 2.4 it asks about loading the drivers for
the PCMCIA cards and I forget if both or just the 2.4 does the
automagic thing and finds the right one.
Now if only I can get X-windows to behave on my HP OmniBook 4100
grrrr.
Have fun! Doc
