Sounds like you just kinda blew past the point you install kernel modules without telling it what kind of network card you have. Without loading the module, and saying no to PPP (dialup) connections, gives dbootstrap (the installer) no reason to run through the rest of the networking questions. > Should I have said yes to a PPP connection?!

Browse through /lib/modules/<kernel-version>/kernel/drivers/net/ and find what looks closest to your network card, and then try insmod <module> (don't include the .o). If you don't get an error message, add the name of the module to /etc/modules and check out man 5 interfaces to see how to tweek /etc/network/interfaces to do what you want to do. I'm not familiar with any network config tools out there, in Debian once you got the module right, networking's a snap. - -- Baloo -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE9EW88NtWkM9Ny9xURArcdAJ9Uu+U0L2UO+TM1Mcrj1yEm6+Tg/ACgqLbB DPytXrh5YOD+ZpPXaZXXBb0= =akh5 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
