compaq armada 4210t docking bay network card

[Sverre Helge Bolstad <sverre.bolstad@student.uib.no>]

hi,

Im trying to install debian for the first time on a Compaq Armada 
4210t, 3Gb HD, 96Mb RAM, P233, laptop without CDR-drive and with the 
network card in the docking bay.

I get as far as to configure the network before installing the base 
system. Im using a floppy network install with 6 floppys.  (root.bin, 
rescue.bin and 4 driver.bin floppys) Is this the best way to do a 
network install ?

The problem is I cant find the network driver. Its not a PCMCIA-card 
,its built in to the docking bay and called something like Compaq 
armada 4210 family ethernet card. (checked in windows, cant remember 
exactly..)

Do I have to get the driver on a floppydisk from somewhere, I cant find 
it for linux nowhere.
Is there another way to get around (or straight at ) this ?

Should I go for another distro ? (I hope not...)

r,
Sverre
