Actually, see: http://groups.google.co.nz/groups?selm=hjpO.4Cb.9%40gated-at.bofh.it&oe=UTF-8&output=gplain Based on this email, it seems that the bf2.4 kernels have support for the 8139 chipset, but don't have the PCMCIA/CardBus support for those chipsets. It looks like you'll need to use Knoppix, build your own install disks for Debian, or use a different distribution. -mjg -- Matthew Gregan |/ /| [EMAIL PROTECTED]
