    i have the asus a7n8x, with the built in NIC as well as a 2nd nic i added,
    an intel pro 100 S, with chipset number 82550.

    I'm trying to use the netinst cd and its not working because it keeps
    failing to set up my network cards. I tried installing it using both the
    2.4 kernel and the 2.6 kernel but both fail. The intel card just fails to
    install. It says its installing for 82557 82558 and 82559 chips, so maybe
    thats the problem with the intel card. The built in nforce nic though says
    it installs, but fails to get an ip from the dhcp server. DHCP server is
    working. plugged my laptop into the same port with the same cable and it
    picked it up right away.

    I found the below link searching the list archives. It says it needs the
    forcedeth module, but when the installer is running, one of the modules it
    says it needs but thats not available is the forcedeth module.

    Any suggestions as to how i can get this working?

    thanks
