PC: i686 (Old Dell Desktop)
Distro: Puppy Quirky 1.4 (Older distro but it works for me and I am happy with it.)
Kernel: 2.6.31.14
NIC: Intel 82652EZ

I got the PET drivers for this long time ago. Don't remember the exact location of the driver.

Run this command: lspci -nn

Is your NIC detected?

Then run: lspci -k

Is a kernel module being loaded for it?

Presently, I am running the same OS from CD and it works ok. This was setup several years ago. I got above info. from running the live CD os.

Now, I wish to install the same on a USB drive. eth0 drivers needed for this.

Your NIC is using the e100 module which has been in the Linux kernel for a long time.

Are you sure that you needed an additional PET to get it working in Quirky 1.4?

Why not set up the USB drive and see what happens?

The OS on USB doesn't detect the NIC. This is even when I go to internet setup. Also tried ifconfig, it doesn't give any info. for eth0
Puppy Hardware info. also doesn't list eth0 when this is being run from USB. This is under network, interfaces. However, it is ok when run from live CD. (The live cd uses a custom .sfs file that is on my hard drive. Tried to copy this file to USB, it doesn't use it.)

Same happened to me the first time I used this OS several years ago. Got drivers for this in form of .pet somewhere.

I looked in Quirky 1.4 and the e100 module is there. I loaded it manually with

I would copy the core Puppy files off the CD onto the USB drive again.
