While the kernel loads there is a line: device eth0 delayed initialization [Failed] This creates a lack of network connection. The module loaded is the 3c59x for a 3com NIC. The installation was an upgrade from existing install(6.0) in which the NIC loaded properly. Might be caused by an autodetecting/probing of the device to specify the line passed to the kernel?
What does /etc/conf.modules look like? ------- Additional Comments From 10/15/99 16:58 ------- conf.modules: alias eth0 3c59x alias parport_lowlevel parport_pc pre-install pcmcia_core /etc/rc.d/init.d/pcmcia start options 3c59x irq=11
What happens if you do 'modprobe 3c59x' from the command line? ------- Additional Comments From 10/19/99 17:31 ------- returns back with "can't locate module 3c59x" Is this module missing from the kernel that is installed with 6.1, I need to check the kernel version.

The 3c59x module is included with 6.1.
This sounds like a corrupted install. Closing it in the absence of other info
