Installation wont detect Network Cards

I have two network cards, on Linksys and one Macronix.  Astaro V4 installer does not recognize either card.

The system is an old Celeron 333 with 128mb's ram.  With a 4GB hdd and cd-rom and floppy.  It was an HP Pavilion 6355.

I dont know what to do, ive switched them around, there are only 2pci slots so im limited there.  I know both of them worked, and should be working now, I dont have the setup to test them right this second, but I doubt they would have failed in a matter of a few months of non use.  Thank you for your time.

Also, if you do happen to find the base product on the HCL, what is the chipsets on the NIC's?

Well, The macronix card was on there, as not tested but should work.
But the Linksys, well they dont list any numbers or anything, so I couldnt tell you if its really on there or not.  Whats weird is linux more than a compule of flavors recognizes them, and knows they are there.  Redhat, Mandrake, Debian, even Slackware, but Astaro acts like it doesnt exhist....well Im still dumbfounded as to why.

On the list, the macronix is the second macronix card listed has an x second to last digit.  the x is a 1 onthe card.

Thanks for trying to help out.
