Hello Newsgroup,
How can I get the DMESG Output from a new Notebook, which does not recognize
any Network Cards without Installing NetBSD?
I regularly get new Notebooks, to set them up (Windows XP).
But I like to see the boot messages on them all.
Though, normally I boot with the 1.6.2 installation CD and exit in the Main
Menu. Then enter dmesg on the shell. If the network is recognized, i can
transfer the output to another machine.
But what should I do, if the Network is not recognized?
And I'd rather like to boot with a 2.0 Kernel, because much more new
Hardware is detected. Where do I get a 2.0 Live CD ?
Any Hint to get the message without installing NetBSD?
Regards, Zafer.
