Well… I just installed 2x 7600/132 debian linux routers… with 3x 3Com 3c905 in each… they run fine… but does not boot with quik, just leaves me with a black screen on boot. I’m using BootX to boot, running self compiled kernel 2.2.18 for ipchains, transparent proxy, syncookies and 3c59x module. partitions:
HFS(not +) 90MB running MacOS 9.1 core mountable in linux… nice for kernel export etc… root 1.7GB swap 2x installed RAM (I think it’s 128MB) ------------------------- Yours Sincerely, Gjermund Gusland Thorsen Linux is like a wigwam, No Gates, No Windows, Apache inside!
