That's what I'm trying to figure out! When I first boot my rescue disk, it identifies itself as a 2.0.29 kernel, but when I copied the kernel and base files to my notbook and rebooted, a uname -a revealed that I have 2.0.32 installed -- so the pcmcia-cs and pcmcia-modules that come on the disc (cheapbytes debian 1.3.1 cd) don't work. > Once I had the pcmcia packages, I installed them with dpkg: > > dpkg --install pcmcia-cs<version>.deb > dpkg --install pcmcia-modules<version>.deb > > That's all it took.

My laptop doesn't have a cd-rom drive or network card, so I have to get it up and going via floppy and then install everything else via dpkg-ftp with the modem. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
