 Posted: Sat Jan 10, 2004 8:51 am Post subject: Just installed and no network |
 |
|
i've been reading over the forums a bit and can find a few answers to similar problems i've been having with internet, but here i go.
I just finished installing gentoo and the internet worked just fine while i was using the LiveCD, however upon rebooting i get nothing from ping. Here's some info from ifconfig:
inet6 addr:fe80::220::e0ff:fe69:f794/64 Scope:Link
So after some reading on the forums i tried:
dhcpcd eth0
and after that it deteced my IP and i can ping, etc.
My question is how do i make it do this at boot, calling dhcpcd eth0 every time i login is annoying. I coudln't really find anything clear on what to do about this. Thanks for any help i can get. |

You have to edit /etc/conf.d/net (it's in the installation guide, BTW). Add a lineand comment out the line | Code: | # iface_eth0="192.168.0.2 broadcast 192.168.0.255 netmask 255.255.255.0"

that was done while i was installing gentoo, the only line in that file that is uncommented is:
iface_eth0="dhcp"
wish it were that easy =) |

You need to have net.eth0 added to your startup, type:
# rc-update add net.eth0 default
This will start your device at system startup and then it should automatically get dhcp because of your configuration in /etc/conf.d/net

I added:
hdcpcd_eth0="-R" to my /etc/conf.d/net file, but that didn't solve the problem, it's still not detecting an IP when i bootup.
I called
rc-update add net.eth0 default when I was installing gentoo, but for the heck of it I tried it again and got this:
net.eth0 already installed in runlevel default; skipping
Anyone else got any ideas for me? |

Ok, let's try something else. Immediately after bootup (before the manual "dhcpcd") what's your kernel log? Please post complete listings of /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.4 and /etc/conf.d/net as well as the output of and I'll try to discover something... |

Can you still post the other 2 files?
Now studying the rest of your post...
I assume it's a laptop, right? BTW, do you really need IPV6? Not may people do, and maybe it gets in the way... You can disable in the kernel config, if you want. |

It looks like 2 drivers are getting loaded for the same piece of hardware. This could cause a conflict and prevent your NIC from working.
You can fix this by choosing 1 module to use (e100), and putting the other module (eepro100) in /etc/hotplug/blacklist to prevent it from loading. |
