I have been trying for two full days to get an NFS installation of Debian onto my new work-issued Thinkpad R31 w/built-in Intel E100 NIC to no avail.
I have a new 3COM/Mhz 10/100 card and an ol' but trusty Xircom IIps card. With a 2.4.19 kernel monolithically (i.e. no modules) built, with NFS support compiled in, along with PC Card services, I have learned that the newer E100 NICs, which this laptop likely has, is not yet supported by the 2.4.19 kernel. I also have read that the Yenta driver may have PCMCIA IRQ allocation problems - http://www.pairlist.net/pipermail/linux-laptop/2002-July/000517.html I have tried the kernel both with the Yenta driver as-is and modified per the patch. No luck with PCMCIA, either, with either card. How do I get Debian on this laptop via E100 or PCMCIA? Thanks in advance.
