The error happens when booting from 4.1a bootcd and choosing e100b.dos. On the other hand the linux boot disk does appear to work as far as the network driver goes, it automatically finds and loads and connects to the install share. But on two out of three attempts it then failed later on in the process when it tried copying files from the LAN to the local HD.
I guess my question at this time is, what if anything can I do to try finding out what goes wrong when loading the dos ndis e100b.dos driver? Assuming here that the questions about the linux related problems will take much longer to sort as that boot method hasn't had enought testing in this project.

I have a Toshiba A40 notebook with onboard LAN NIC Intel 100/Pro+ which as far as I can see loads the e100b.dos successfully but then doesn't complete the rest of the network setup.
The screen flies by too fast to read when it loads the e100.dos hardware driver but it ends as follows: (which I assume means it was successful?)
Defaulting to NIC found in slot 0x0028. PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_103D&SUBSYS_00011179&REV83 Permanent Node Address 00080DB367F4 Current Node Address 00080DB367F4 Configuration Speed AUTO Transmit Buffers 4 Receive BUffers 8
## I would have assumed at this point that the e100b.dos loaded successfully?
It then goes on to say:
DOS TCP/IP
The command completed successfully.
LAN Manager Netbind
Error 36 Unable to bind. Hardware failure.
NET0125: NETBIND must be executed before TCP/IP TSR module is loaded. Unloadable TCP 1.0 not loaded.
## This I find confusing? I thought it said a few lines earlier that DOS TCP/IP loaded successfully?
NET0116: TCP Access failure by Tiny RFC. press any key to continue Error 7361, IPX or NetBIOS must be running in order to load the network.
