This software might help however, do you still have it?
We also tried using a wd80x3 and an smc elite16t, and neither of those
were found, although they are on the supported drivers list in the
FAQ. Do they need to be PCI?
Also, are there any alternate kernel images? I've only been able to
find one, no matter where I look. If anyone knows of any more eb164
kernel images that could help, plz let me know!
Are there any recomendations for what kind of ethernet card we should
try next? (we'd have to buy it, unfortunately)
