Re: DIGINET D-Net A2GS card - free to a good home!

["brad" <mrbrad(remove)@ll.net>]

a bunch of us on this newsgroup have diginet stuff...i think i have
more/less the complete setup..but no mandrake setup disk...i was told once
if the o/s on the diginet hd is ok..you can get around the install disk and
get the unit back up...but thats pretty much where everyone stands on this
as of right now ..unless someone can bring a diginet server back to life
with just what is on the hd in some kinda hack ...or someone actually has a
mandrake network 5.25 disk about...thats where it is at
