[PLUG] Re: [PLUG]Debian install WAS RH EOL
|
Leroy,
Thanks for the offer. I have been struggling with it all day.
My main problem is that my NIC (Intel PRO/1000 XT) is not being
recognized. Therefore I can't do a net install. I have CDs but they are
2.2.
I did install 2.2 and then downloaded the driver from Intel. When I tried
to compile the driver I got an error about version.h being missing. Some
addtional reading indicated that the source and the current config had to
match or it would not compile. So it looks like I hve to compile a kernel
just to get this driver to install.
Am I going about this the wrong way? It just seems that it should not be
this difficult.
Jon
