Hello!

I have installed Gentoo on AMD64 from stage 1. Everything was fine on livecd and it was possible to use inet.
Then I have reboot the system to start the system at the first time...

Hmm, I'm not seeing anything in the net initscript that would cause an error like that. What does your /etc/conf.d/net look like?

Did you setup hotplug? Did you copy your firmware to /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware/? Did you mount sysfs?

codein · Posted: Mon Apr 11, 2005 7:53 pm Post subject:

no i havn't setup hotplug and i also havn't copy a firmware into the folder..

burt yes sysfs is mountet...

have found this:

could you please instead of prism54 try the prism54-firmware package?
and use the in-kernel driver instead of the priovided one.

But why it has worked under livecd-envirement???

k now i will try to emerge the prism54-firmware package...

takes 10 min.

It probably worked because the livecd uses that firmware and you don't

k everything is alright!!!

eth0 works now..

but this is a wirless card and no wired. I don't get a connection.
Think i must instll wirless-tools? because i havn't iwconfig to configure the wirlesscard...
