It's 13 May 97  11:50,
We'll return to balcomj@daddy.com and All's
discussion of Boot Probe not seeing Ethernet card

 ba> In kernel version 2.*.* they went to hiding the NE2000 cards in the
 ba> configuration script. Once you get into networking cards it will ask
 ba> you about 'other ISA cards' with the default being 'no'. You've got to
 ba> take 'yes' and then you get a whole bunch more cards, including the
 ba> NE2000.

This dates back at least as far as 1.2.13.  I got caught the first
couple of times I compiled a kernel. :-)


... if (program == crippleware)  bit-bucket(program).
