Both, 2004.1 and 2004.2 live-cds universal, kde, gnome, are missing kernel drivers for the iMacs G3 400 DV onboard ethernet device eth0: Digital DS21143 Tulip. In both kernels those (tulip) drivers are disabled and only the bmac and gmac drivers are enabled. No network connection over ethernet is possible with an iMac G3 until a new kernel is compiled.

Expected Results: working eth0 with the iMacs built-in Digital Tulip 100MBit/s Ethernet devices. Please include the Digital Tulip Ethernet driver into the kernel or as module for the next live-cd.
Thnxs, I'll add this to 2004.3. Betas should be asap.
On the beta. I'll let you know when it's online.
