[Gllug] Installing on a laptop

[Formi]

You had knoppix running in network mode fine, just put the cd in,
and once it is loaded type lsmod in a xterm.

Before doing that try in mandrake

insmod tulip

and then try

ifconfig -a

if you see eth0 listed you have done it, to make this permanent
add the following line in /etc/modules.conf

alias eth0 tulip

after all that you might run draknet and configure the network
settings.

 Hope it helps.
