Re: [gentoo-user] drivers for Conexant hsf modem

[brett holcomb]

Maybe you could get a distro like knoppix, boot it, get the modem working under Knoppix and then install Gentoo.

To my point of view you have no way with standard boot cd rom.
You have to build your own CD and it's absolutely not a simple task.

Sorry, I can't help you but a PCMCIA modem will...

*sigh* ....
this is not what I was hoping to hear ...
Is there not a way to build kernel modules on another machine to work with the 1.4_rc2 ISO image.
there must be a way.
If not I suggest we start a site called insmod.gentoo.org where modules not included in the ISO image can but downloaded from that can be loaded into the ISO kernel startup to prevent problems like this.

the only other option I can think of is looking at knoppix to get my machine on the net and then doing an install from there.

I would of course prefer doing it the gentoo way.
