I'm trying to do a network install of debian on a computer which has a 3com 3c905c-tx network card. 3com kindly provides GNU licenced source code for this card on their website. I succesfully compiled the module on another debian system, and put it on a floppy, in directory /lib/modules/2.2.18pre21/. I inserted this floppy when appropriate during the 'Configure Device Driver Modules' portion of the installation.
However, no network interfaces are found. I imagine I need to pass some kernel or insmod parameters for the specified module. Where/How do I do this? -- Ron Peterson Network & Systems Manager Mount Holyoke College GPG and other info at http://www.mtholyoke.edu/~rpeterso
