The kernel included in this new live cd detect the mac address and all network parameters (full duplex, 100Mb), but...... network doesn't work: Rx led blinks but Tx doesn't. No bits are sent along the cable and after some hour I have a RX buffer overflow. May this output be usefull? livecd root # lspci -x -vv -s 00:02.0 0000:00:02.0 Class ff00: Silicon Graphics, Inc.
