Hi,
Sometimes you can check and recheck all your settings, but the problem 
is so obvious you miss it every time.  I am hoping that this is one of 
those situations, and one of you can point it out to me.  I am getting a 
ltsp 3.0 server going, and having some trouble with a D-Link ISA nic 
using the ne driver.  I have tested the system on another terminal that 
has a PCI nic, and it works fine.  My server is a RH 7.1.

Here is a copy of the DHCP file that pertains to this system

    host speeder8 {
        hardware ethernet     00:80:C8:19:EA:B6;
        fixed-address         192.168.1.8;
        option option-128       e4:45:74:68:00:00;
        option option-129       "NIC=ne IO=0x300";
        filename                "/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.9-ltsp-5";
                }

Booting fails with a Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 01:00

Leading up to that we have
RAMDISK driver initialize: ...
NET4: Linux TCP/IP 1.0 for NET4.0
IP Protocols: ICMP, ...
IP: routing cache table ...
TCP: Hash tables configured
NET4: Unix domain sockets ...
VFS: Cannot open root device "ram0" or 01:00
Please append correct "root=" boot option
Kernel panic...

Now, since everything works on a test machine, I know that the system is configured 
properly, no tcpwrappr problems or something like that. It must be with this 
individual workstation settings, and mostlikely the NIC driver.  I have confirmed the 
IO and IRQ settings, so what else could it be?

thanks in advance,
mattc
