Hi
FWIW I've just re-installed woody on my 8100/80 nubus Mac with the
2.4.19rc1 kernel.
I reported previously that when I installed potato (kernel 2.2.5 IIRC)
the installation automatically configured my network connection from the
dhcp server but when reinstalling/upgrading to woody 2.4.19 I had to
manually configure the network.
It seems that dhcp-client works with 2.2.x kernels but is broken with
2.4.x kernels - is this a bug?
However, the good news is that using the excellent dselect, I swapped
pump for dhcp-client and it worked "out of the box" after I reset
/etc/network/interfaces to read:
# For a dynamic setup with dhcp you need:
iface eth0 inet dhcp
auto eth0
Magic ;-)
