Hi there,
I have the following problem. I hired a dedicated server from a company
that offers the service to install the system from a cd with a remote
control console. This worked fine with two servers in the past. Now I
tried to install netbsd 3.0 but the ethernetcard of the new server
differs and is not recognized by the standard kernel. There is no way to
put data to the systen via the remote console to install and patch the
kernel sources. So is there any chance to build a new kernel and put it
on a installation cd image? Or are there any other possibilities.
Thanks in advance
Arne
Here is the linux lspci output maybe there are some usefull
informations about the ethernetcard.
