Re: pci problem with dell



mark,

thanks for your reply. i am have a 3com 3c905B-TX card as well as
a Kingston 10/100 card that is an NB2000 clone. they both show up
in /proc/pci, however i was unable to install the drivers for either.
i have just finished loading the base system from disk and was planning
on using ftp to get the rest of the o.s. however now i am in a catch-22
situation as i cannot see the network. is there any way to try to install

the drivers without going through the installation again?

thanks in advance,

//daryl
