Re: [PLUG] Re: [PLUG]Debian install WAS RH EOL


I've always pressed F2 for Options which tells you how to select bf2.4 kernel. I 'think' you need to type "linux bf2.4" not just "bf2.4" but the F2 screen does provide the exact wording to enter at the prompt.

If use boot from cd 4 or 5 you will get bf2.4

I know that one of the install cds contains multiple kernel versions -
there it is.  cd 1 is supposed to be a multi-boot cd - there is some
option (f2?) to list the various boot parameters when you get the boot:
prompt.  Choose the bf2.4 kernel, and you'll install a 2.4 kernel ,which
I'm fairly sure contains the driver for that card.



I looked throughout the help on both CDs and couldn't find how I could
boot to another kernel.



HTH, and sorry that's not a more specific answer - I haven't had to
reinstall in a _long_ time.  One of the things I love about Debian :)
