This has been covered many-many times.
if this has been covered so may times then why does the topic not show up on a mail-list search on cobalt web pages ?
If you read the instructions that camewith the CD it describes the Ethernet compatible cards (page 7 RaQ2-Qube2) (page4 RaQ3). I used the NetGear FA 310TX (tulip 21143-based) as it is inexpensive
what book are we talking about ?? nothing like that on page 4 of my raq3 books ??
well it dont work with ne2000 wd8013 nec dec cards I tried about 10 then gaveup. now the normal Slackware or RedHat dist works with all of them be nice to see the recovery disk do much the same as a normal Linux boot system.
Thanks anyway if I need to use this I will go out and get one of those cards Just to do a recovery.
On the other hand I am going to make my own recovery CD based on the cobalt CD but with a boot kernel image that looks for more than ONE card.
