I have downloaded the intel network driver and saved it on my usb |
| 13 |
thumbdrive. The problem is that I |
| 14 |
need a LiveCD with the kernel sources and gcc to compile the network |
| 15 |
driver for the kernel. |

I do have another linux machine here, but it's currently only accessible |
| 18 |
via ssh (no graphics). Would that help me somehow? |
