On my Power Mac 7300/180, the system boots from the boot floppy, and I can see that the MACE ethernet drivers come up. When the "Configure the Network" options is selected, the network hardware will not configure with DHCP, giving the generic message "The network failed to initialize using DHCP". The network interface can be manually configured. When a shell is invoked, ifconfig shows that the card is properly configured. ping <any host> results in a segfault. wget <any URL> results in a segfault. Obviously, http installations immediately return an error code as there is no network connectivity. This is a grave error in my case, because wget is required to install woody. I repeated this problem on another Mac as well, with identical results: Hardware Profile #1: Power Mac 7300 PPC 604e @180MHz 132MB FP RAM (interlaced) 2GB Fireball SCSI ATI PCI video On-board MACE ethernet hardware Hardware Profile #2: Power Mac 7600 PPC 604 @132MHz 64MB FP RAM (interlaced) 1.2GB Fireball SCSI On-board video On-board MACE ethernet hardware After this problem, I verified that potato will install without incident on this hardware.
