Hi. Up-To-Date Sid on a Vaio PCG-GRT170.
I finally tracked down the problem I've had trying to go from kernel
2.6.10 to 2.6.11, which I noticed recently became the "official"
latest Debian kernel. Or rather, 2.6.10 is showing up as obsolete
today.
Debian wins again. :^)

When upgrading kernels it's a good idea to copy off the lsmod to a

Try reversing them, putting the 512 where the 256 was. I recall that
on some of the systems I've worked on, the larger memory card had to
go in the lower-numbered slot.

Ok, here's how pcmcia ethernet works for me.
I have installed the networking system. ifconfig shows the "lo"
interface, I can ping and telnet to 127.0.0.1, and things like that.
I hope yours is at that point also. If not, please make sure that you
can.
I then have entries in /etc/network/inter

forward. However, I had to enter noscsi etc at boot by hand the first
time before I could add it to /etc/lilo.conf.
Knowing that ahead of time would have saved me some headaches.

I recommend you try Knoppix to see what it says about your harddrive.
