Hej
Jeg er ny her og ved ikke om jeg overhoved kan få hjælp til mit problem, jeg
ved heller ikke hvor jeg præcis skal lægge tråden :D. Jeg er ikke selv den
vilde linux haj :D, men jeg har besluttet siden jeg ikke kan få vindows til
at virke med min PCMCIA port og/eller netkort kunne det være linux kunne.

Jeg har derfor forsøgt da min bærbare ikke har CD-romdrev at installere
Linux over netværk, jeg har/havde planer om at bruge http://www.klid.dk/sw/
men kan ikke få de netværksdriver osv til at virke.
Mit problem ligger i det ikke er et standart netkort.. men jeg håber at en
af jer måske har en løsning på problemet.

Nedenstående tekstfil var hvad det lå under linuxdriver på driverdisketten
da jeg fik kortet.

Driverne til netkortet i windows kan findes her:
http://www.microupgrade.net/MicroNetwork/index.htm
hvis det er en hjælp.

Min bærbare er en IBM thinkpad 760XL uden CD-romdrev... men skulle kunne
køre redhat.

hvis der er nogen der kan hjælpe mig vil jeg blive glad kontakt mig evt. på
jonas_skovmose@xxxxxxx for mere info

MVH og på forhånd tak jonas skovmose

1. Insert the adapter in the PCMCIA or Cardbus slot in the notebook,
   and reboot the system.  If the file /etc/pcmcia/config exists, and add
   the following lines in this file:

        card "PCMCIA Fast Ethernet PC Card"
        version "PCMCIA", "FAST-ETHERNET-PC-CARD"
        bind "pcnet_cs"

   Be noted that you have to add the lines in /etc/pcmcia/config in exactly
   the same format as shown above, including matching capital and lower case
   letters.

   Reboot or excute "/etc/rc.d/init.d/pcmcia restart". If the adapter
   works properly, you can skip the rest of the document.  Otherwise please
   go to the next step.


2. You have to build the PCMCIA environment from the source files.  First
   check if the Linux kernel source tree is installed.  Typically this is
   in the directory "/usr/src/linux".

   If the kernel source tree does not exist, you have to install it first.

   Different Linux systems have different ways to install the source tree.
   In the following the Red Hat Linux 7.0 is used as an example.  For other
   Linux systems, please refer to the documentation that comes with the
   system.

   a. Mount Red Hat 7.0 CD 1.
   b. Find the kernel source files, which are typically located in
      /mnt/cdrom/REDHAT/RPMS.
      The name of the source package is "kernel-source-2.2.16-22.i386.rpm".
   c. Install the package with this command:

         rpm -i kernel-source-2.2.16-22.i386.rpm

      If you use one of the GUI shells, you can just double click on the
      rpm package to install it.

3. Check if the PCMCIA driver files are included in the source tree.
   The files are located in /usr/src/linux/pcmcia-cs-x.x.x
   (The x.x.x designates the version number).  If this directory does
   not exist, or if the version number is lower than 3.1.21, you have to
   download the PCMCIA driver file "pcmcia-cs-3.1.21.tar.gz" or a higher
   version of this file from:

   ftp://www.sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/kernel/pcmcia

   You have to untar this file and place it under /usr/src/linux with
   this command:

   tar -zxvf pcmcia-cs-3.1.2x.tar.gz

4. Change directory to "/usr/src/linux/pcmcia-cs-3.1.2x".  Issue the
   following command to build the environment:

   make config

   When the system prompts to select the Kernel-Specific option, select
   "Read from the currently running kernel."

5. Issue the following command to install the environment:

   make install

6. Modify the file /etc/pcmcia/config as described in step 1.
   Issue the following command to restart the cardmgr:

   /etc/rc.d/init.d/pcmcia restart

7.  Issue the following command to check the adapter status:

    ifconfig -a

8.  Refer to the Linux document on how to configure an IP address for the
    adapter.
