I know that everything is fully functional because all components work when booted from tom's root boot linux floppy (www.toms.net/rb/). I want to do a FTP install from a floppy boot, but sysinstall isn't recognizing the network card at all. If I go to Configure->Choose Media->FTP, but ep0 is not detected. I even tried putting if_ep.ko and pccard.ko on a floppy from a seperate machine (same release) and loaded them, but no luck. What am I doing wrong? P.S. This is 5.3-RELEASE. Should I try an older release? -- eyefull@eml.cc
