Hello!!!

I ran kbdconfig, choose sunt5-fi-something and

The need for such setup was due to the estimated bandwith of overall

Hi ppl, today I had a problems with DEC21143 tulip cards. The problem was
that card goes into 10mps mode just after linux loading. It seems that
there are problems with tulip drivers. Tommorow I will try to recompile

somehow.
i just recently installed debian 2.1 from a cd on a dual boot machine. the
system config is:

-64mb Ram

this machine also boots to Windows 98, which resides on a 3 GB partition.
I was told that debian would "see" the entire hd, but cfdisk only "saw" a total
of 8 GB.
