In my kernel config, I have: |

# Ethernet (10 or 100Mbit) |

11 |
CONFIG_NET_ETHERNET=y |
12 |
CONFIG_MACE=y |
13 |
# CONFIG_MACE_AAUI_PORT is not set |

I saw no reason to bother with the Apple interface, although my 8600 has |
16 |
one as well. |

Is this during the installation, or afterward? I believe the most-used |

networking options are built into the LiveCD kernel, so modprobe would |

not accomplish anything if the ones you need are built in. |

You say it's plugged into a hub -- is this Mac going to need to go |
28 |
through DHCP, or NAT, or something in order to get an IP? You may be out |
29 |
of the realm of PPC-specific stuff in that case. :) |

As a useless side note, I never figured out how to get local video |
32 |
working on my beige beast, so all of my access is by SSH from another |
33 |
room. :-p |
