I have an old ISA NE2000 compatible nic that isn't detected at startup. How can I:
o alias eth0 to the ne module
o specify irq=11 and io=0x300 options for the ne module
o load the module
Thanks...

modprobe ne io=0x300 irq=11

Should work...

(I feel a little :oops: as I should have known that)

Hi,

Forgive me, but Im new to Linux. Where would you enter/place this? At a cmdline once inside Knoppix, or is there a file it can be saved to? (for automated CD boot).

Thanks
Brad
