Hi! I didn't know which driver was the right one for my network card so I just compiled all network-card drivers that where listed into my kernel I tried it with test9 and test11. The DS21140 Tulip driver found my card and crashes the system during boot up. My card is a Davicom 9102(?). It's working fine with the right driver. I give you the cutted output of lspci -m and lspci -vvv lspci -m: Device: 00:09.0 Class: Ethernet controller Vendor: Davicom Semiconductor, Inc.
