Fedora 4 install failed to detect ethernet, sound cards

rhipps · 11-02-2006, 01:01 PM

I have just installed Fedora 4, failed to detect and setup audio and ethernet.

NIC is Intel Pro/100 VE, e100b325.sys windows driver.

Audio is on the motherboard, SigmaTel high def controller? chipset is 82801GB, pentium 4.

since I'm a total newbie, how do I go about fixing this? thanx in advance.

Since Fedora 4 is now quite old, I would start by getting Fedora 6--or some other modern distro. Even Fedora 5 has installed smoothly whereever i have tired it.

for now I need to learn Fed4, but maybe later I can try 6.

is there a place to look for drivers for F4?
