First of all, why is SCO in braces, you'll ask. The reason is, I have not seen anything in this linux distribution that sounds or smells like Caldera/SCO, even though I downloaded it through SCO's UnitedLinux beta tester website. I will mostly focus on the installation (as I am a UNIX installation developer in "real life"), but I will also discuss more parts of the UnitedLinux distribution. For more screenshots of UnitedLinux and its installation procedure, go here.

Who knows, maybe I'm just jinxed. Or my mobo is not-so-good. BeOS and Caldra OpenDesktop 2.4 (IIRC) detected my soundcard okidoki, but it's still possible that I have a different revision of the chipset from the one you have. Could you do an lsmod and post the output here?
That onboard NE2000 you have, is it PCI or ISA? Mine is ISA, and it's never detected, but I don't really expect it to be. Actually, the bug in YAST's networking setup is not related to the card's detection but to the management of the network driver configuration vs. ethernet interface configuration. The card configuration keeps disappearing, even though the network comes up OK once I edited /etc/modules.conf
