Problems Installing bone

[Dan]

Hello all.
Right now, I have BeOS5 PE for linux (just to try...then I'm gonna give
it it's own partition) on my PIII-750 machine. Most everything works
fine, and I have upgraded to 5.0.3. However, my wireless card requires
that I install BONE for the driver. I have gotten BONE 7a, and I
unpacked it. When I run the install script, it installs everything, but
after I reboot, it just dumps me to a kernel debugger.
Anyone have any ideas?
TIA,
Dan

You may need BFS or may need to be running the full 5.0x BeOS Pro

Reduce your ram to 768MB or less.
BONE will do this behaviour if you have 1GB in your system.

How does one get bone? isn't that part of dano?
Or whatever the unreleased next version was called.
I'm afraid that I don't use my beos anymore.
Cannot get ip out of the dhcp I am provided at the
cyber cafe in Port au Prince.

Bone is availabe via BeShare, so you have to have BeOS running in order to get
it. If you add it to BeOS 5.03, it will disable the printer prefs, so you'll
also have to get the updated printer perfs file.
