Hi all, I'm trying to do an install of potato using a xircom pcmcia network card and my HP 800CT. I switched to the older install disks ( thanks Charlie ) after experiencing the pcmcia problems noted on this list.
Now the install works and grabs the base system using ftp. At this point I can switch to another shell and ping the network. But after reboot, the installation gets all the way to 'apt configuration', but can't access the network. I switch to another shell and, yup, sure enough I can't ping the IP of the gateway. I check the configuration ( ifconfig, route ) and everything is cool. I can't seem to find any errors in the /var/log/messages and the pcmcia card has link lights and activity. Anyone seen this before? Am I crazy? Any advice? Thanks, Matt
