[hcflinux] Downloading Conexant driver

[Angus Auld]

Hi Leo,
If you are able to download the driver from Win98, just be sure to take note 
of the destination folder where IE saves the driver (you can specify the 
destination when download begins). From Mandrake you can browse to that 
location on your Windows FAT partition (file:/mnt/windows) and copy/paste 
the driver file to your Linux /home directory.
Alternatively, you can copy the driver to floppy and then get it to your 
Mandrake system from that medium.

HTH. Best of luck to you! Welcome to the world of Linux!

I'm a linux newbie.  I've found the appropriate Conexant  driver on your web 
page "Linux Drivers for Conexant"  for Mandrake 9.0 using Explorer 6.  I'm 
not sure it downloads as I can't find it in anywhere in my windows 98 OS. Am 
I supposed to download this in Windows or Linux and if the latter I'm in 
catch 22 situation as  Mandrake is unable to recognize the modem. Can you 
help?

L.
