128MB. (No, I didn't boot with any memory parameter, figuring that even if the newer kernels still recognize only 64MB, that's plenty.) > Second, how did you install the drivers?

Whether I loaded the drivers from three drivers diskettes, using the "mounted" option, or using the "harddisk" option, I got the same symptoms. > In the past I have had some trouble getting the drivers.tar.gz file to > install.

Other than a dependency problems, I could install drivers fine. Daniel -- Daniel Barclay [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Hmm.
