As the broadcom gigabit ethernet chip is not supported without additional modules, I used a D-Link ethernet PCMCIA card instead (driver 8139too). Using this card, the base install worked fine. Unfortunately, when rebooting from harddisk, PCMCIA didn't work anymore, so I have no network access and thus no means of downloading the broadcom driver: sam:~# /etc/init.d/pcmcia start Starting PcMCIA services: modulesinsmod: a module named pcmcia_core already exists /lib/modules/2.4.22-1-386/pcmcia/i82365.o:/lib/modules/2.4.22-1-386/pcmcia/i82365.o:: unresolved symbol isapnp_find_dev_R27cb2cad ds: no socket drivers loaded! /lib/modules/2.4.22-1-386/pcmcia/ds.o: init_module: Operation not permitted Any ideas?
