What is in your /etc/modules.conf file?
Do you have your BIOS set to something like PNP OS + no?
Is this a PCI or ISA card?

One of the things I found is that sometimes it's better to download the
necessary RPM's into the same directory and then install ALL the rpm's from
the command line (i.e. rpm -Fvh *.rpm) rather than using rpmdrake.

Last time I tried to upgrade RPM etc., I got caught in an endless
cycle of dependencies and eventually gave up. So, at the moment,
I am waiting on 8.2 to solve the problem for me.

Hi list,
does anybody used kcdlabel and resolved the configure problem for it?
