Hello, As I see into the SuSE 7.2 Reference manual, for laptops we can define different schemes to be able to boot with different Network configuration. As I understood this chapter, schemes are used with PCMCIA cards. My laptop is an HP OmniBook 6000, and I'm using the 3Com Network interface of the motherboard. I don't think that this interface is manage as a PCMCIA device. Does it make sense to use scheme to be able to get at least two different network definition ? Will it works with my interface ? Thanks for your help. Regards Pascal MiQUET
Can anyone provide a pointer to instruction to get SuSE 7.2 bootdisk working with a PCMCIA Network care - reading the modules from floppy is NOT on, as that is also PCMCIA and can't read anything after the bootdisk... Bloody Toshibas !!! Jon
Pascal , There are two different things: PCMCIA package allows to use "schemes", and so you can change PCMCIA configuration by "cardctl scheme [scheme_name]". Scheme package in SuSE allows you to write different scheme configurations (not just PCMCIA configs).
