If I boot of a kernel floppy (either kcaha or kcbt) the 3c509B card is recognized as ep0 and things are dandy. However, after I copy that kernel image over and reboot, the machine fails to detect the 3c509B card. I've tried various IRQs trying to see if there's a conflict somewhere (though I would think that the floppy boot would not find it either). I know that the 3c509 card works and assumed that the 3c509B card wouldn't be all different. Anyone have any solutions or suggestions for me to try? The machine configuration is a DELL P5-75 with 32 MB RAM and 1 GB HDD. - matthew ---- matthew zeier "Do what you can with what you have matthew@risetime.com where you are." -Teddy Roosevelt ......................................................................
