Thanks,
Read the documentation for that NIC (3c90x) in /usr/src/kernel/Documents/network. There are some parameters you can use to adjust speed and full/halfduplex. If you run a 10Mbit network put it in halfduplex. On 100Mbit network fduplex is good if you have a switch or good hub and all other devices run in full-duplex

Sounds like a case for ReiserFS :)

This is a unique solution. Can you still log in as root?

I run plenty of them. Just make sure that they are not in PnP mode and use the default irq and io adresses. (I believe irq=10 and io=0x300). To get this done go to www.3com.com and get the drivers disk(s). On it is a configuration utillity (works in DOS) that you can use to to make it run in a non pnp mode. Also it is better to make sure that that nic is run in half-duplex mode. BB, Arjen
