Hello,

I just install RedHat 5.0. However, the Linux simply couldn't
find the NIC even I put it as NE2000 compatible.

On win 95, the card work & with I/O base = 0x200 & IRQ = 10
Even I specify those value in linux, the card couldn't be found.

Who ever had experience before, please share it with me.

Thanking U in advance,

- SA -

If the card is PnP and came with a DOS utility to set the I/O base and IRQ
did you use it? (Just checking) Did you compile in the NE2000 driver? Have
you tried passing its resources on the command line? I use lilo and had to
use the append command for my D-Link card. You might want to try adding the
following to your lilo.conf file: append = "ether=10,0x200,eth0"
