 Posted: Mon Apr 14, 2008 7:59 pm Post subject: /proc/net/route |
 |
|
I have just finished installing gentoo and I am having no luck getting the internet up. I believe that my problems are coming from the fact that I do not have a /proc/net/route file. Here is a collection of the errors that I receive when I boot gentoo:
| Code: | warning: no inet socket available: No such file or directory
eth0: unknown interface: Bad file descriptor
awk: cmd. line:1: fatal: cannot open file '/proc/net/route' for reading (No such file or directory)
/etc/init.d/net.eth0: line92: /proc/net/route: No such file or directory
err, eth0: socket: Address family not supported by protocol
*ERROR: cannot start netmount as net.eth0 could not start |
When I try to create the /proc/net/route file myself, it won't let me save, so I don't know how to create the file. I'd like to know how to create the /proc/net/route file or if my problems stem from something more than the missing file.
Thanks |

procfs, the stuff under /proc, is a pseudo filesystem, which is why you can't just create a file there.
I think the problem lies elsewhere though. What does
give you? |

You shouldn't be getting that "warning: no inet socket available: No such file or directory"
Could you give the output of lspci and your kernel config as well please? |

You need to compile in your kernel the support for Networking ---> Networking options ---> Unix domain sockets

| I have unix domain sockets built into the kernel. Thanks for the help though. |

| I found a similar post about the "no inet socket available" that said that the problem was caused by a conflict between ipv6 and ipv4. I tried to disable ipv6 in the kernel, but that did not solve my problem. I can see either an error or a warning about a file containing ipv4 (something like /net/ipv4...) but it goes by too fast and I cannot read it. Could my problem have something to do with an ipv4 ipv6 problem? Thank you for any further ideas. |

Had the same error message on a fresh install of gentoo, when trying to bring up eth0..
The "eth0: socket: Address family not supported by protocol" error
found the solution though:
https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-5066039.html#5066039
what I was missing was highlighted in the last post, packet socket (I had unix domain sockets)
All better now.. hope that helps. |
