Umm... I just made bootdisks from this location and they worked fine
for me. I don't see the error you're reporting. What did you do to
get that error, and at what point did the error occur?
Are you sure the disks are good? Can you try them on another machine?
FWIW, I'm not convinced that there is PCMCIA support for the 3C589D,
even in RH-A 4.2.
