installed 2.13 - no more sound or networking!Fixed already:)

#1 Post by Pieter »

Today i replaced the fully functioning puppy linux 2.02 on my usb stick with the new 2.13. I just replaced the three files on the usb stick that should matter - initrd.gz, vmlinuz and the puppy disk image thing. However, when i boot puppy linux, my hardware doesn't seem to get recognized!

Where in the old version, i had sound from both soundcards, an onboard AC97 card and a VIA ENVY 24HT based card, I don't here. Where i could just enable DHCP in the old version, i cannot even get any network module loaded - and my network adapter is a basic realtek 8139!

Additional information: i have an athlon 64 2800+ with a motherboard with kt800 chipset.

So, would anyone know what could cause this?

With 2.13 you also need to copy the file zdrv_213.sfs off the CD. It contains the device drivers.
