Startups into Linux now take about 1 minute more. This is because the
startup process is interrupted at this point:
eth0 Found Broadcom BCM5201 PHY
Link state change, phy_status: 0x782d
Link up ! BCM5201 Aux_stat 0x003d
It appears long enough for me to write it down, and then it appears
again. After that startup proceeds normally.
I believe it is searching for hardware that I may or may not have. I
have one ethernet card on an iMac DV.
After startup i do not have access to internet (DHCP configured cable
modem accessed through an ethernet hub).
I can't remember having done anything that might have affected my
setup... but then again, who knows?
Any suggestions, kind people :-) ?
This is DHCP hanging, you probably use pump that doesn't work with most
cable modems. Install a working dhcp client (like dhcp-client) and you
should be set.
