Hi All,

I have installed Win'98 on a Travelmate 6020 that had a preinstalled Win'95. Both Acer and Phoenix do not make '98 drivers so that the TI
28K modem or Zircom's 10/100 ethernet card don't work. Has anybody run into this issue...which leads me to the next question.

If I were to load RH Linux, will it magically recognize the two components? Do do I regress into '95 hell?

Thanks,

Max
