Hi,
In December, I tried to install the hurd on a box with the same chip set;
I could not get it to work. Eventually, I swapped that for the Intel
Ether Express Pro 100B card in my GNU/Linux Box. Note that I was working
with GNU/Mach, not oskit GNU/Mach; The drivers from the former are based
on Linux 2.0.x while the latter's drivers are based on Linux 2.2.x.
Additionally, it should be noted that you do not have to compile the hurd
to get the desired support; Only gnu/mach, which, can be done under any
environment, GNU/Linux or otherwise. Note that you do not need to cross
compile.
Regards,
-Neal
