Install when your Ethernet port is not detected

Hello;

        I had this happen when I was trying to install on my Asus Netbook 900 which has an unsupported ethernet device... I found that the Linksys series USB/ethernet devices are detected in Centos 5.x installs and can be added in long enough to get the install completed then pulled after you locate and find the drivers for for the ethernet adapter.. They are posted by the way.... google if needed.... also the wifi drivers are posted for centos/redhat etc....

Just a little tidbit I ran across in my frustration.. I now keep a Linksys usb/ethernet adapter in my laptop kit for emergencies.. :slight_smile:
