"eth0" starts ok, but only manually
Hello. I have just installed Mandrake 9.2 RC2 and I haven't been able to
configure my net adapter with the assistants. So, when system starts, it can't mount the eth0 (says "FAIL"), but if I login as root and I write these lines, it works: ifconfig eth0 inet 192.168.0.99 netmask 255.255.255.0 route add default gw 192.168.0.1 So, can anyone tell me how to configure my Linux to start automatically with these parameters? My ifcfg-eth0 contains: DEVICE=eth0 BOOTPROTO=none IPADDR=192.168.0.99 NETMASK=255.255.255.0 NETWORK=192.168.0.0 ONBOOT=yes Which I suppose it is correct. Thanks in advance. knocte

Nope, here is mine, cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 DEVICE=eth0 BOOTPROTO=static IPADDR=192.168.1.10 NETMASK=255.255.255.0 NETWORK=192.168.1.0 BROADCAST=192.168.1.255 ONBOOT=yes After changing files, do a service network restart

This are my new config files: # cat /etc/sysconfig/network HOSTNAME=maestro NETWORKING=yes GATEWAY=192.168.0.1 GATEWAYDEV=eth0 # cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 DEVICE=eth0 BOOTPROTO=static IPADDR=192.168.0.99 NETMASK=255.255.255.0 NETWORK=192.168.0.0 BROADCAST=192.168.0.255 ONBOOT=yes # service network restart Desactivando interfaz eth0: [ OK ] Desactivando interfaz loopback: [ OK ] Configurando parámetros de red: [ OK ] Activando interfaz loopback: [ OK ] Activando interfaz eth0: [FALLO ] I hope this is not too strange... :( Regards, knocte

Hmmm, I am confused, I thought you had everthing working with the only problem was you had to set the gateway? Now if that is true, maybe rebooting the computer will make it work. If not, someone else will have to help. You could try a search engine http://groups.google.com/advanced_group_search link beat not detected in the exact phrae box *linux* in the Newsgroup, pick English If you have to do something else, please post your solution.

Well, I couldn't use Google Groups because the proxy-cache that is using my ISP is banned! (FORBIDDEN). I can't beleive it! However, I have tried on google.com to search that phrase, and one of the results was: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=3452 Yes, a bug, that's what I was supposing. The thing is that there is a workaround, if I add this line to ifcfg-eth0: MII_NOT_SUPPORTED=yes Then the service will be working ok when I restart it. I will post my case on that bug, so as they will have more material to work with. Thank you very much for the help, Bit Twister and Alex Yung. Best regards, knocte
