RE: "sarge" install: "Install base system" bombs and disk errors (?)
OK, fixed that problem, but, with "sarge", I still get the following errors
(same as original problem):
modprobe: failed to load module floppy
eval: 3: Syntax error: newline unexpected (expected ")")
With "woody", it can't find my network hardware (Intel 82547EI Gigabit LAN
controller).
Any help with either of these would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Allen
