Hi,
I got a mail from a guy who didn't know which driver to use, to use his
NE2000 network card, to perform the install.
So I wrote some add on to stage1 in order to have a description of modules
(when their name is not very explicit only, I don't want to waste too much
diskspace).
I didn't include all the supported cards in some situations (for example
for driver tulip.c) because of both diskspace limitation, and on-screen
available room.
If someone knows of a website translating Linux drivers to real hardware
adapters, I could include the link!?
I include it here in order to get possible bugreports from you:
