 For the record, the same thing happens when trying nfs or ftp install
 from floppy. More exactly:

 I enter the nfs or ftp parameters
 It says in both cases:
	Testing connectivity...
	ping: -c: Unknown host
	Failed to ping selected host

This is with a PCMCIA network adapter in the laptop

Ciao,
	Marco
