Well the floppy images are now compressed in bzip2 format I think, and WinImage cannot 
open them directly. You will have tu uncompress the image with a tool like 7-zip 
before you can open it with WinImage.
If there is no floppy image for your network card in the unattended distribution, you 
will have to edit 3 files to make your own image :
* replace the "whatever.dos" driver file in the floppy image with the driver for your 
network card (it should be called "NDIS2 driver" or "DOS driver" on the driver CD that 
came with your computer)
* edit the name of your network card driver in the "system.in_" file, it looks like 
this : NETCARD=E100B.DOS
* edit the name of your network card driver in the "protocol.ini" file, it looks like 
this : DRIVERNAME = E100B$

Hope this helps.

Sylvain.
