Brian,
Yes, the 8139too is the correct driver, but the 2.4.5 linux kernel has
a problem with 8139's.
But, you are in luck. I now have the 2.4.9 kernel with the NFS root
patch, and it works just
fine with the 8139 cards.
I'll have it on the download page later tonight.
I hope that helps,
Jim McQuillan
