if=Win98Boot.bin of=/dec/fd0 to create one. You'll have to extract the disk2 exe/zip and copy the some of the dos utils your new bootable floppy. There should be a utility there for configuring the cards. (sorry, don't remember what it is.) Reboot, boot from the floppy, run the config utility. If you have aa PNP bios, set the cards to plug and pray mode. If you don't have a PNP bios, set the irqs and stuff manually. (Try not to conflict with anything). Reboot to Linux and you should have better luck. If you're running Debian, install the 3c5x9utils package and read the documentation. I belive this package will allow you to do the same thing as the tools on the 3com driver disk. If you don't have Debian, http://freshmeat.net/projects/3c5x9setup/ Never used the Linux tools myself. -- Andy Zbikowski, Sys Admin | (WEB) http://www.ltiflex.com LTI Flexible Products, Inc. | (PH) 763-428-9119 (EX) 132 21801 Industrial Blvd | (FX) 763-428-9126 Rogers, MN 55374 | (PCS) 612-306-6055 --------------36BB054F6D8AC1E9A0FC962E Content-Type: text/x-vcard; charset=us-ascii; name="andyzb.vcf" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Description: Card for Andy Zbikowski Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="andyzb.vcf" begin:vcard n:Zbikowski;Andy tel;cell:612-306-6055 tel;home:952-591-0977 tel;work:763-428-9119 x-mozilla-html:FALSE url:http://www.ltiflex.com org:LTI Flexible Products;Information Services adr:;;21801 Industrial Blvd;Rogers;MN;55374;USA version:2.1 email;internet:andyzb at ltiflex.com title:Computer Systems Administrator x-mozilla-cpt:;0 fn:Andy Zbikowski end:vcard --------------36BB054F6D8AC1E9A0FC962E--
