I have a pretty stock Dell Inspiron 4000
1 - I downloaded, burned and booted up the LiveCD. pci-setup does not find anything at all ... neither my sound or the NIC I found the maestro3 module on the LiveCD but not the eepro100 module needed for the NIC. I also have a wireless card. Since I need the networking, is there a way to use a wireless PCMCIA card, then later configure the internal NIC once the system is built?
2 - I want to dual boot Gentoo with Mandrake. I've set up GRUB to boot into Mandrake. How would I set up the system so that it could also boot Gentoo; the reason for this is I want to share my /home, /tmp and swap partitions between the two so whichever one I am working in I have access to my personal files |
