Hi,
While installing RH 8 (kernel 2.4.18-14) my networkcard (a VIA VT6105 Rhine-III) was properly detected and worked like a charm !
Because of troubles with CDROM support on this kernel version i migrated to the latest stable version (kernel 2.4.19).
My cdrom troubles where over, but now my eth0 will not initialise !
Please could someone help me ?
Thanx !!
Max
