Dear Sirs

I have very odd problem installing 3.4 release.

The machine: 486DX  DX4-S 100MHz 8Mb mem and 852Mb disk

  It has an 3C509b (ep0) card running with PnP disabled.
  (we have also tried D-link card).


Installation progresses fine we choose to install over ftp
we have chosen various locations. It starts to make a new
file system and it contacts the ftp site of our choice and
starts to fetch the /bin dir it gets a few Kb  and then it 
comes to a complete stop. 
It says something like  
.... bytes   1 chunk of 110  @ 1.5 Kb/s
      
and nothing more (the 1.5 Kb/s depends on our choice of
ftp location)

We do not get any clues from going to scroll mode or moving
to Alt F2, nothing alarming here.

I have also installed 2 other 3.4 releases last week on 
modern Pentiums using the same gateway, IP and DNS so I 
know they work.


Does anyone have any clues? I have exhausted my fantasy.

Best regards
Hans Weber
