I have finally been able to sucessfully install the network drivers, after much hastle. The easiest solution was of course to compile 3c59x and pci-scan outside the kernel, and boot them in the right module sections. The problem arrises that pci-scan doen't get inserted in the modules of stage 1 and stage 2 kernels due to a very "simple" line in beoboot, which changes a - to a _ ! Renaming pci-scan to pci_scan solves that problem, and my nodes are now humming nicely. This shows that the 3c59x from the "default" clustermatic/bproc 2.4.18 kernel is indeed buggy for certain (if not all) cards! Niels -- Dr Niels R.
