 Posted: Wed Apr 20, 2005 6:07 am Post subject: How to set DHCP |
 |
|
When Linux is loading up, it sits around probing for an IP, the IP is always 192.168.1.97. It says bringing up eth0 and then I have to wait about 30 seconds for it to find that IP.
Can someone tell me, or give a a webpage on how to set that IP. That way I can load Gentoo faster, thanks. |

You may try adding '&' sign to your start scripts. Hovewer with network services that's not recommended.
Exactly - look at /etc/conf.d/net and assign yourself an IP in a static way. (Always the same IP with dhcp?...) |
