Use the NetGear FA 310TX (tulip 21143-based) and the crossover cable and
it will work. Contact me if comp usa is out of stock.

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 ?

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.
