I've installed grml-small 0.2 on a laptop with grml2hd, and am trying to get the network card working... , a Belkin F5D5020 [...]
grml-small does not support PCMCIA. Install grml 0.7.
I just repartitioned my 4G hd to make room for grml 0.7, which installed without a hitch & automatically recognized the Belkin network card.
Setting up the internet connection with grml-network was super-easy, was able to connect to my DSL provider and to the web with w3m. "pon dsl-provider" and "poff" brought the connection up & down. I ran "apt-get update" at this point.
Then, after re-booting, "pon dsl-provider" replied:
Plugin rp-pppoe.so loaded. /usr/sbin/pppd: In file /etc/ppp/peers/dsl-provider: unrecognized option 'nic-eth0'
So I edited /etc/ppp/peers/dsl-provider and commented out the line "nic-eth0", tried "pon dsl-provider" and got a connection. Then, after re-booting, pon failed to initiate a connection:
% pon dsl-provider Plugin rp-pppoe.so loaded
% ifconfig ppp0 ppp0: error fetching interface information: Device not found
% plog May 22 22:38:17 grml pppd[3460]: Plugin rp-pppoe.so loaded. May 22 22:38:18 grml pppd[3472]: pppd 2.4.4b1 started by john, uid 1000 May 22 22:38:18 grml pppd[3472]: sendPacket: send: Network is down May 22 22:38:18 grml pppd[3472]: Exit.
At this point I have to run "grml-network" after each re-boot to get a connection. Thanks for any suggestions.

John
