Im installing on my Lime iMac and there seems to be a lack of a working network driver on the 2004.1-Universal cd. There are only two files in /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/net. Neither modprobe tulip or sungem works. How can I get my networking so I can start the installation?

well first off, with Universal, you don't need an internet connction to install of the universal install. secondly, i would compile off the minimum 2004.2 disk (although technically your not compiling off it, it downloads the latest sources then compiles, but install wasn't apropriate term to use)

Nope 2004.2 does nothing no eth0! no sugem or tulip found for modprobe! Am I typing something wrong? Do I need to pass it more commands?
