Hi

I am using ltsp_core-3.0.5-0, ltsp_kernel-3.0.5-0 on RH8. CLient machine is
a p41.8 with an eepro100 nic. Booting from a rom-o-matic 5.1.5 floppy image,
dhcp is fine, the ram disk loads, but i get the error message about being
unable to detetct the NIC:

ERROR! Could not automatically detect the network card.

and then kernel panic. the dhcp conf file contains NIC=eepro100 as option
129, but surely this only relevant for ISA nics

So it seems that: etherboot image has right NIC config because I get dhcp
but the initial kernel doesnt contain the right drivers for my ether express
100 nic.

Are there any suggestions? Will this be resolved by a kernel rebuild with
static NIC drivers?
