derxen Posted May 6, 2007 Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 Hello I'm trying to do a network install of 2007.1, using the boot.iso on a cd. For some reason, it hangs after configuring eth0. Nothing happens anymore. I have a linksys adsl gateway, which acts a a dhcp server, and that's never a problem with an install from cd. Does anybody have any idea what could be wrong? derxen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scarecrow Posted May 6, 2007 Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 And your ethernet/wifi adapter is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derxen Posted May 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 And your ethernet/wifi adapter is? It's a realtek RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+. The kernel log says 'configuring eth0 ' and then the settings, which look correct, but ten minutes later nothing has happened yet. I've tried resetting the gateway and then booting again, but that doesn't help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leo Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 for what it is worth, this was my experience too but after I waited a bit longer (could not say how long but I went and made coffee - I may even have grown and roasted it myself) it came started up.

Leo Maybe I should have *two* cigarettes then, or try the coffee thing. I noticed something in the logs: it says 'found net interface lo, but blacklisted' (it also finds eth0, but that's okay, apparently). Could that be relevant? derxen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
