Laptops appear to be a significant installation nightmare .. unless you have a CDROM or a full set of floppies you end up using the serial port (and many, many hours). Maybe I've missed something but it seems that, by default, even though I have this ethernet card plugged in the side of the machine, I have no way of capitalising on the bandwidth of the T3 its default gateway's plugged into. Are there any issues wrt having pcmcia slots enabled in the generic kernel ? I currently have a D-link (ne2000 compat?) installed but have had a 3c589 with similar results .. the inabilty to use it, michael
