chris-tux Posted May 15, 2004 Report Share Posted May 15, 2004 I move from 9.2 to 10.0 on another desktop with another lan card (which semms to be very well recognized). Everything worked fine with 9.2 but now with 10.0 , during boot process eth0 initialization process answers always failed. I have a netgear router with an ADSL modem with mdk 9.2 (static IP), mdk 10.0 (static IP), 3 desktop with XP (dynamic IP with DHCP). /etc/hosts and /etc/resolv.conf seems ok for me and when I open mcc and go in the internet menu, there is type of connection: LAN but always not connected. However I can surf without any problem! I suspect that during installation, mdk 10 has initialized another connection ? but can't manage to solve my problem.

Gowator Posted May 15, 2004 Report Share Posted May 15, 2004 as troot in a console (if you dont know how to do that check the FAQ) type ifconfig -a You should have a ppp0 and eth0 probably has no IP add. Just confirm this but in 9.2 eth0 probably does have. this is the different way the wizards work in 10 to 9.2 I get the same and have to wait a long time for it to time out I think you can get round this but I dont reboot often (once a month) so I havnt bothered to fix it.... anyone...

Guest evilregis Posted May 18, 2004 Report Share Posted May 18, 2004 My eth0 fails as well when booting into 10. However, I have full network/internet access when it's done booting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris-tux Posted May 18, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2004 well, so I am not alone in that case but It does not seem to inspire the network gurus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyme Posted May 18, 2004 Report Share Posted May 18, 2004 I had this problem when I installed MDK 10.0 OE, and it perplexed me. I searched high and low for an answer. eventually I set a hostname aside from the localhost and now it's started working fine. i'm not sure why...it's quite odd. to set the hostname i had to edit a file and change a variable...i forget which file it was, i'll look when I get home this afternoon unless someone else points it out first.

sttroopers Posted May 19, 2004 Report Share Posted May 19, 2004 I had the same problem. What I did to solve it was set "onboot" to no in my /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 file. So it looks like this: DEVICE=eth0 BOOTPROTO=dhcp NETMASK=255.255.255.0 ONBOOT=no WIRELESS_ENC_KEY="" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zwirni Posted May 22, 2004 Report Share Posted May 22, 2004 Same problem with a wireless pcmcia-card. I've statet this problem some weeks ago: http://bugs.mandrakelinux.com/query.php?bug=671 but it seems to be a "normal" problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
