 |
|
At boot up I get a netmount failure. I have done the following:
!. using the same driver as the boot cd, which has no issues when running install.
2. echo blah > /etc/hostname (and aslo for domainname)
3. rc-update add domainname default
4. nano -w /etc/conf.d/net (only active line is the iface**"dhcp") no gateways or anything else require
5. rc-update add net.eth0 default
6. emerge dhcpcd
7. I tried 2 seperate kernels ... one at a time ofcourse
Am I missing something?
PS..... the hd drive just failed... its dead    ... I noticed that the driver i picked didnt actually take when compiling the kernel. Upon recompiling the hd died. so the prob would have been fixed had there been a good hd. 4 years old.... plays taps for hd. So if ya can forget I asked in the first place, please do so.

You mean iface_eth0="dhcp" right? Try running dhcpcd -d eth0 then post the last few lines of the output of dmesg. Also run ifconfig eth0 to verify that your device has been detected and lsmod to verify that the module was loaded correctly. If ifconfig eth0 gives you a device error but lsmod shows the module was loaded correctly, then it could be the wrong module.

So sad to hear that. It sucks when hardware just farts out on you.
