I installed woody over the internet, configured by the local DHCP-server. I then downloaded (from debian) kernel 2.4.20 from http://www.kernel.org and compiled it to get X working (as part of a i810/i815 howto).
The 3c59x-driver was compiled directly into the kernel along with the other needed support. The problem is that the network does no longer work. After searching on google i found a post on a mailing list which described a similar problem after switching to the 2.4.*-kernel with the very same driver. I can now no longer find that post. I've tried several possible solutions, found at these lists or google, however none of them have worked. During the boot I get no clues, only a few error messages that relate to another problem. A few lines from my console: # ping -c 1 192.168.0.1 ((my gateway)) > PING 192.168.0.1 (192.168.0.1): 56 data bytes > ping sendto: Network is unreachable > ping wrote 192.168.0.1 64 chars, ret=-1 # ping -c 1 127.0.0.1 > PING 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1): 56 data bytes > 64 bytes from 127.0.0.1: icmp_seq=0 ttl=64 time=0.0ms # ifconfig eth0 > eth0 \tLink encap: Ethernet HWaddr 00:B0:E2:93:18 > \tUP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 > \tRX packets: 4 errors: 0 dropped: 0 overruns: 0 frame: 0 > \tTX packets: 5 errors: 0 dropped: 0 overruns: 0 carrier: 0 > \tcollisions: 0 txqueuelen: 100 > \tRX bytes: 1380 (1,3KiB) TX bytes: 550 (550.0 b) > \t Interrupt: 11 Base address: 0xec80 # ifup eth0 > ifup: interface eth0 already configured # ifdown eth0 > cat: /var/run/dhclient.pid: No such file or directory # ifup eth0 (pause) (still no working network) -------- In advance: thanks for any effort, Rolf E.
