Thanks very much for the kernel you sent, but unfortunately, the network card driver for our card is not built into it, so the machine could not network boot. We've discovered this problem long ago, and got around it by simply compiling the driver into a custom kernel of our own.
What I'd like to know is what drivers you compiled into your custom kernel that you sent me, so that I could reproduce it myself. Also, if I wanted to use your kernel, I suppose I could edit the ramdisk (messy, i know) to load the driver for our NIC on the fly, using the list in my_modules. Which version of the kernel source did you use ? Thanks very much Bruce -- Bruce Becker UCT-CERN Research Center - University of Cape Town Room 405, R.W.
