There was a hint about the e1000.o module in another thread that you might try. Take the module and place it in the /tmp directory within the initrd.img file. I did the same as mentioned in the other thread and it solved my issues. If you run into a space issue on the disk after re-building the initrd.img then remove unneeded files, create another img filesystem that is smaller with dd, and put the data in that image file. As a side note, I have edited the ks.cfg file on a non-linux, non-pc system, and a pc. Once I touched the file with something non-linux, it ceased to function. I intentionally tried it with both after noticing issues and asking Jeremy about it. Scott On Thu, 2002-04-25 at 19:58, Chad M.
