Now in the install notes it says: Note, if the system does not find the ethernet card in the bootstrap manifest, this will not work. Well I did not see any mention of my ethernet card when it booted, just my com1, and console and floppy. I have a western Digital ethernet card I believe the model is WD803 or wd003 (something like that). Anyone got any suggestions? Steve PS also for the FTP stuff it says to enter : ifconfig <enet device> .... I am assuming the enet device would be located in /dev/whatever if my ethernet card was detected. --- =============================================================================== = Steve Bazinet = = Department of Computing Services - University of Waterloo = = jsbazine@garfield.uwaterloo.ca (or) jsbazine@watserv1.uwaterloo.ca =
