Hi,

it looks network is messed up in the latest kernels. 2.4.4 worked fine,
2.4.5 hang at the first network part. 2.4.6 hangs when insmodding the NIC
module (3c59x), or doing anything else that has to do with networking.
There is little progress, but I wonder why a newer kernel somethings
breaks the stuff that works.

Greetz,
