Hi to all!
I use the VMWare (hosted on Windows XP) and everything goes fine when I run DSL (version 3.2) from LiveCD.
But, after the HD Install, the network doesn't work.
I tried the manually load module (with root access) "modprobe pcnet32" (the same module that is auto-loaded when run from cd, checked by "lsmod") but it can't be fixed.
The same thing happens when I try the network configuration in "control panel".

Has anyone get the solution for this problem when running and installing DSL on a Virtual Machine using VMWare?

ps.: sorry for bad language, my english is not fine.

Hello,

I have exactly the same problem.

Isn't there really anybody who can help with this?

Hey,

I finally found it myself.

These were the steps for me:
insmod mii
insmod crc32
insmod pcnet32

After this, i started netcardconfig in the menu.

After that, it worked fine.

Now, i still have to make this permanent, so i don't have to repeat it everytime after a reboot.
