pcmcia network /sbin/runscript.sh error

azlan

Hi all!

this is my problem... basically KDS laptop, initial install goes fine till I reboot, then netgear pcmcia card is detected, but configuration goes awry. (this card works with the install disk nicely)

I have the same exact problem. Toshiba laptop. What package is runscript.sh from? binutils?

I believe it is part of the base system

either part of the bootstrap or the emerge system process.

I found a reference about it on the web, where someone had mentioned that it might be fixed by doing an emerge -update world, but I think that is an old gentoo thing and I am not sure whether that is part of the bootstrap now or emerge system, and I don't know what affect doing either of those will have on the rest of the things I have installed scince.

Are you using ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86"? or are you on the default branch?

yes I am using ~x86 in my make.conf.

I actually used the experimental live cd to install with, I just have had such great luck with all the gentoo stuff.

I also used the march=pentium3 -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -ffast-math -fforce-addr -falign-functions=4

so it is pretty up to date, but I am afraid to admit that might be the problem,

because the desktop system I am using to type this on is just as up to date and working like a charm

My only other thought is that perhaps something is not right in my environment settings, but I am doing the big desktop install right now using the live cd and chrooting over, so I can't check it yet.

What faith huh? :wink:

I switched to the 2.5.69 kernel and the problem went away... hrm... did you try re-emerging pcmcia-cs? I am also on ~x86.

azlan · Posted: Sun May 18, 2003 8:32 pm Post subject:

ya I re-emerged it but to no good, perhaps something in the kernel configuration. But still that makes no sense at all.

runscript.sh is just a shell script, perhaps I need to re-emerge bash.

But that doesn't make sense either, the problem is with a few variables, if I could figure out what those variables are supposed to be perhaps I would know what the problem is, I just am not sure, perhaps I will poke around in the networking scripts to see what I can find but, I really am not very good at this.
