This combination worked with GNU/Linux. The 3COM NIC is know to work with the Hurd. However, while gnumach/Hurd will boot on this system, it is unable to ignore the defective onboard NIC and unable to use the 3COM NIC. Attempting to start networking generates continous streams of eth0 and eth1 reset messages on the console that render the system unusable. + |
