Yes, I knew, sorry, I was thinking of the best list I was subscribed to to ask this and part of the question in fact also applies to Fedora (how to make a driver disk for Fedora?). > HP provides drivers for the e1000 on their linux driver pages.

The issue is that you need a driver compiled with the exact BOOT kernel of RHL 9, AFAIK, so I assumed this won't work. I've now solved it by adding some legacy network card for install only (after installing - with updates merged - it will recognize the newer Intel cards anyway). But a driver disk howto would be useful anyway, also for Fedora ;).
