Subject: 2.6.0 - Network doesn't come up.
Date: Thu, 02 Oct 2003 13:22:21 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200310021922.h92JMLNI002197@orion.dwf.com> (raw)
OK, Im trying to run 2.6.0-test6 on top of RH9.
I have progress in some areas but not others.
NETWORKING. is a nogo.
If I compile the driver 3c59x as a module, it gets loaded, but
with the driver in the kernel or as a module, I get the messages
in the messages file (during boot) or when I do a ./network start
from /etc/rc.d/init.d

[root@orion init.d]# ./network* restart

Shutting down loopback interface: [ OK ]

Thats the right address for the ethernet card, and NOTHING else is
using it... So what do I need to do?
Ill assume that some config file or script needs to be modified,
but what/where.
At the same time I see:
---
[root@orion init.d]# /sbin/ifconfig -a
