hi,

got my system running, but no net:cry: . hardware: adsl - router (dhcp) - switch - amd64 box.

i compiled the genkernel with genkernel --udev all
and i did emerge dhcpcd!

my /etc/con.d/net ( sorry, can't copy & past, so there might be some typos. ..)

Code:
iface_eth=="dhcp"
dhcpcd_eth0=" -H -D -N -t 30"


ifconfig gives:

Code:
eth0                Link encap: Eternet HWaddr 00:11:09:8C:FE:EO
                   inet6 addr: fe80::211:9ff:fe8c:fe/64 Scope:Link
                   US BROADCAST NOTRAILERS MULTICAST MTU: 1500 Metric 1
                   RX packets:0 errors: 0 dropped:0 overruns :0 frame: 0
                   TX packets:8 errors: 0 dropped:0 overruns :0 carrier: 0
                   collisions:0 txqueuelen:100
                   RX bytes:0 (0:0b) TX bytes: 2148 (2.0 Kb)
                   Interrupt:22 Base address: 0x200

Io               Link encap: Local Loopback
                  inet addr: 127.0.0.1 Mask 255:00.0
                  inet addr:: 1/128 Scope: Host
                 UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU: 16436 Metric
.
.
.


rc-update -s looks s.th. like this:

Code:

coldplay      |                default
consolefont | boot
crypto-loop |
domainname|               default
gpm             |
hdparm        |
hostname    | boot
hotplug        |
locale           |                 default nonetwork
localmount   | boot
modules       | boot
net.eth0        |                  default
net.Io            | boot
netmount      |                  default
nscd             |
numlock       |
runlogin        | boot
rsyncd          |
serial            | boot
sshd             |
syslog-ng     | boot
urandom      | boot
vixicron        |                  default


what do i miss?

thanks again:wink: !!!

Is that a typo? It should be
Code:
iface_eth0="dhcp"

/var/log/messages shows - among other stuff - the following:

Code:

tux eth0: no link during initialization
tux r8169: Gigabyte Ethernet driver 2.2.2K loaded
tux eth1: Identified chip type is "RTL8169/8110s"
tux eth0=: no IPv6 router present
tux dhcpcd (7519) timed out waiting for valid DHCP server response
.
.
.

does this tell us anything:?:

thanks one more time!

I can tell you one thing: you don't even have ipv4 on that interface.
If it was your intention to only use ipv6 on that interface then the preceding error says it all: your dhcp server does not properly distribute ipv6 information - or you router isn't ipv6 capable.

It would help if you started by telling us what it is that you want to achieve, and then indicate what you got that did not correspond with your expectations...

Smartarse :P

Do you intend to use ipv6 or was that unintentional ?
If you don't need it, disable the ipv6 USE flag, and don't enable it in the kernel either.

It also says: no link during init.
That means you have no connection - check your cables.

ok, pls don't underestimate my ignorance...

i can follow you so far:

my USE flags are

Code:
USE="-gtk -gnome qt kde dvd alsa cdr"


so should i put s.th like "-IP6" there?

2nd: i used genkernel, do i have to compile again?

3rd: don't think the cables fail, ' cause it works fine with the live-cd.

cheers again!

From how I understand this:


Quote:

tux eth0: no link during initialization


There is no cable plugged into eth0, thus dhcp fails

Quote:

tux eth1: Identified chip type is "RTL8169/8110s"


The interface you are using is eth1

I would try the following:

cd /etc/init.d
ln -s net.eth0 net.eth1
rc-update add net.eth1 default

in /etc/conf.d/net add:

iface_eth1="dhcp"
# Some network admins require that you use the
# hostname and domainname provided by the DHCP server.
# In that case, add the following to let dhcpcd use them.
# That will override your own hostname and domainname definitions.
# dhcpcd_eth1="-HD"
# If you intend on using NTP to keep your machine clock synchronized, use
# the -N option to prevent dhcpcd from overwriting your /etc/ntp.conf file
# dhcpcd_eth1="-N"

Append:

if you are indeed using eth1 instead of eth0, you can disable eth0 completely, thus avoiding a possible timeout / error messages upon boot:

rc-update del net.eth0
