Hmmmm....... Always dieing at 50%? Have you tried a 500MB transfer? Tried different cables? This is a difficult one to trace to say the least..... Review everything you have done so far, might be something else we can give a shot on. Matt On Sunday 28 January 2001 12:33 pm, Christopher D. Reimer wrote:

I got them on by downloading them and then issuing the "rpm --rebuild netdriver-2.1.src.rpm"
I tried that... and it didn't work because it was complaining of unresolved symbols. I had better success with compiling the individual drivers:
gcc -I/usr/src/linux/include -DMODULE -D__KERNEL__ -O6 -c tulip.c gcc -I/usr/src/linux/include -DMODULE -D__KERNEL__ -O6 -c pci-scan.c
I had to include the -I option to successfully compile the drivers.
insmod pci-scan.o insmod tulip.o
These drivers are blazingly fast... I was getting a consistent 395 kilobytes/sec on my 10Mb network.
Unfortunately, the network still dies after transferring 50% of a 1GB batch transfer. (This is significantly more than what I was able to do with the older drivers.)
Thanks!
