Here's the situation: my kids have an A3010 (2Mb). I have a spare 2.5"
HDD (250Mb Quantum Daytona) after a recent laptop upgrade, and also a
spare external 28.8 modem.

Obviously, I need an IDE card between the A3010 and the HDD. I
understand that I can get an IDE card which accepts a 2.5" HDD. Thats
the easy part. (BTW if anyone knows of anywhere I can get one for less
than UK�60 then please let me know).

So, assuming I get the HDD working (yes I know all the drive
attributes; cyl, hds, sects etc and have upgraded umpteen PCs), what
do I need to get  a tcp/ip net connection?

Anyone know of a FAQ page or a step-by-step by someone "who's been
there, done that" ?

I'm asking from the perspective of a PC user who is used to doing the
following, regardless of operating system (Win3.x, Win95, OS/2 Warp,
Linux, WinNT);

enabling tcp/ip support
set up dialler (inc ip addresses)
getting hold of net software as required (browser, mail client, ftp
client, irc client, newsreader etc etc etc)

All help greatly appreciated.

TIA
