Thanks, I am nearly stressed up because i am fighting with this connection for nearly a month, I dont find Broadcom Netextreme either in the list of adapters. Also i tried to download the latest kernel RPMs 2.6.10... as adviced but when trying to install rpm -i kerlnelxxx All i get is a warning message and no further installation takes place. I am mailing by booting with winxp and my FC2 is still dormant in the other side of my harddisk. How do i probe for findingout what NIC type i have(ie what linux detects my NIC type is). thank you - ash

Hello, I have a DELL-8400 Series PC with SATA drive
and I dual booted it
with winxp-prof and FedoraCore2 , there was and
still a problem with the
sata drive not getting recognised by FC2, i have
overcome this by
changing the settings in bios (i need to do this
everytime i boot!),
also while booting it says Unrecognised
board/chipset, but the real
problem is that when i try to connect to the
internet, i get an error
message that my device is not recognised. From the
start->
system-> Network connection, i selected the eth0
and the device type as
Intel Gigabit 1000. (Even after configuring the IP and settings) I also tried to build the kernel to 2.6.9.XX from
2.6.5 but all i got is
Kernel panic and FC2 fail to boot. Can anyone help me solve this problem. I am new to Fedora. My system details are DELL-8400 INTEL-925X Express chipset with ICH6-R INTEGRATED RAID CONTROLLER WITH INTEL Matrix
storage
INTEGRATED GIGABIT NETWORK CONTROLLER INTEL PENTIUM 4 PROCESSOR 550 WITH HT technology Serial ATA Hard drive with 8mb burst cache. 3GB DDR RAM.
Any help Thank you

I have a month-old 8400, and the integrated gigabit NIC is detected as a Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme (Trigon3).

I am running FC3. Perhaps out-of-the-box support of this NIC doesn't exist in FC2?

If you want help you will have to be precise. With such information nobody can something specific. Post which RPM you exactly downloaded and which message you got. And use "rpm -Uvh <kernel.rpm>" and not "rpm -i"!

Sorry! Forget the last sentence - was a stupid mistake. Of course using "rpm -ivh <kernel-rpm-file> is correct.
