SliTaz and Windows Networking

> http://vanilla.slitaz.org/index.php?p=/discussion/1444/slitaz-and-windows-networking

I'm a *complete* Linux noob..  Stayed up most of night trying to get SliTaz 3.0 iso on CD working with old Windows98 machine (Inspiron 3200)..

Boots okay, but not connecting to ethernet..  I've got as far as needing to install Samba/smbfs (above), but could sure use a braindead walkthrough, or pointers..

Thanks for any help!
