I do _not_ recommend the Intel EtherExpress 100 line. (82557, 558, 559 chip) They have a receiver lockup bug which if you are pushing a lot of traffic, will definitely affect you. We had two EEPro100s in our mail server (one for smtp/pop/imap, one for nfs traffic). There was a consistent problem

It depends on the kernel. Kernel 2.2.x should not have problems recognizing more than 64M memory. Some srewballed computers like my Thinkpads are the exceptions, however. I have to add "append mem=159M" into lilo.conf to force it to recognize the extra RAM. Bao -- Bao C. Ha, President
