Hello Everyone,

I successfully compiled the kernel and was able to make an iso image. For this I would like to thank everyone who helped me. I didn't realize that compiling the Linux kernel was a fairly easy process.

I do have bad news however. The image still didn't work after the recompile. After doing some investigating with Intel, I discovered that the motherboard was custom made for MPC. It does use the Marvell Yukon adapter however this board currently does not have Linux support.

I tried flashing the BIOS with the standard BIOS provided by Intel but it would not let me. Needless to say we will not buy this specific computer from MPC anymore.

Even though I couldn't get the onboard NIC working, I still see this as a great learning experience. Once again I would like to thank everyone for their help. In the future I will not be afraid of compiling a new kernel. Speaking of which, I see that 2.6.12 is out.

Thanks,

Jeff Michels

The easiest solution for you would be if our udpcast developer updated the web-enabled udpcast configurator with the Intel Marvell Yukon ethernet support.

The Intel Marvell Yukon was already present (as "sk98lin, SysKonnect SK-NET Gigabit Et hernet SK-98xx driver"), however I updated cast-o-matic anyways, in order to take into account some other "new" cards (Broadcomm 4400 10/100, ...). The new cast-o-matic now also has the module name in the label, rather than only the description.

Alain
