Help with SuSE FTP install

[deanrantala]

I have been trying to install SuSE via FTP now for some time.

I pretty much got everything down except setting up networking. I downloaded the 16meg boot ISO for FTP installations and can't get the NIC set up right. When I select the proper module for my NIC, I am asked "please enter parameters for "e1000"", and it simply gives me a command box to type something in. What am I supposed to type in this box? I have tried sevral different NIC's and many different modules, but it always asks for this, so I really need help...

Many thanks in advance...
