ah I get it, specs say it has one of the following...

http://www.intel.com/products/motherboard/d945gnt/

downloaded FC 4 Friday from one of the mirrors that the Fedora website has listed and the kernel is the 2.6.11-1.1369 kernel. Where can I get the iso's fpr the 2.6.16 kernel?

I would grab the kernel rpm from the updates, burn it on cd or drop it on a memory stick install it and see...

IE, if you're using the x86_64 smp kernel, which seems likely grab something like:

ftp://limestone.uoregon.edu/fedora/updates/4/x86_64/kernel-smp-2.6.16-1.2069_FC4.x86_64.rpm

Thanks

Anybody know where to find network drivers for the D945GNT Intel Motherboard? I have tried installing both Fedora Core 3 and Fedora Core 4 and I can't get the network interface to work with either one. I have checked for drivers on Intels website but the only Red Hat drivers there are RHEL 3, 4 and 4 update_1. None of which work with the kernel that Core 3 & 4 use.


I'd be shocked if it didn't work with the current fc4 kernel 2.6.16, the one on either of the installers you talked about is rather old... Also doesn't that motherboard have a 10/100 port as well on an 82562GX/82562GZ PLC device?

I have a machine with two: 82573V which appears to run fc5 fine (supermicro pdsmi). you're just on the bleeding edge of chipset support here.

The network interface will work if I put WinXP on it so I'm thinking it has to be a driver issue. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks
