Getting a direct ethernet connection is a bit tricky Have you tried ndiswrapper? I've used ndiswrapper while the system is booted from CD. The trick is to copy your firmware to USB storage of some sort. Load it from there. Of course, your bootable CD environment needs to be using unionfs for this to work. The talking ArchLinux disk does, as does Grml. Perhaps this would work for you. -- Chris
