No. No generic NIC driver. When installing - to go to the first text console. to = get a prompt. "cat /proc/pci" to see what pci cards you have. The ethernet = card should be listed. Load the module for that card. Use - to get back to the install screen. Google or this list should be able to help you figure out which driver = to use if it's not obvious. ciao, der.hans --=20 # https://www.LuftHans.com/ http://www.TOLISGroup.com/ # Schlie=DFlich verteidigt Amerika Freiheit.
