I'm performing a clean install from a woody CD onto a new machine. To get the network card to work I need a 2.4 kernel, but to get a 2.4 kernel I need the network card. . . So I was hoping there was a way to get a 2.4 kernel onto the CD so I could boot from it, rather than 2.2.19. Thanks, Chris -- Christopher S.
