Do you have a network adapter?

My machine is set up with the CF card in the smaller CF card slot on
the right. Then on the left I have an 802.11b card in the PCMCIA slot.
I also have USB network adapters, but I find them difficult to use
because there's something about the way the kernel boots that it shuts
itself down if a USB adapter is attached during boot. Well, mine does
anyway. So I just use either a wireless or wired PCMCIA adapter.

I don't have the serial cable, but I do have a USB serial port that I
use to speak to other machines. Mostly so I can use the 880 to control
the serial console of my Cobalt Qube2.

I have an install document I wrote for NetBSD 2.0, but I think it's
all still relevant:

I also have some hardware notes there.
