From a terminal, you could try: netcardconfig
and choose dhcp.

Despite using netcardconfig i am not able to detect the network card. It uses Novell 2000default drivers in win98 and the card is 16bit.. it works in win98 how do i get it 2 work in knoppix??

Hi linuxnerd,

for a pci card try "modprobe ne2k-pci".
If it is an ISA card you have to provide the io port with "modprobe ne2k io=0xNNN" where NNN is the hex port. Get this info from win98.
