Thanks again.
OK this is the situation.
System light=1/s
Link light=solid
network=intermittent
disk=2/s
have used several lan cables and different ports on the router , no joy
have tried snap assist , nothing found.
i have run ethereal and sniffed the network whilst running a cross-over between my laptop and the snap , there is nothing what so ever coming out of the snap , all packets are arps and elections from the laptop ONLY
i imaged and re-imaged a few times with the file 2200.bin off misterbills site...
now maybe i have done this wrong , but i booted into knoppix and dd 'd the binary to the hdd of what was an ntfs drive , should i have de-partitioned the drive and formatted it in ext 2/3 ? or is it OK to leave it as ntfs , i would assume that dd just over writes the boot sector and gets the thing bootable ...
could it be the size of the drives it is complaining about ? i am trying it with 20gb hdd at the moment to see if i can get it up and running
