 |
|
Iam trying to configure wired connection on my Gentoo
I see my network card in system:
| Code: |
Gentoo-2012 gentoo # lspci -k | grep Broadcom
03:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4401-B0 100Base-TX (rev 02)
0c:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4311 802.11b/g WLAN (rev 01)
|
Also I see moduls:
| Code: |
Gentoo-2012 gentoo # lsmod | grep b44
b44 19582 0
mii 2843 1 b44
ssb 34222 3 ohci_hcd,b44,b43
|
| Code: |
Gentoo-2012 gentoo # ifconfig -a
eth0: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet6 fe80::21c:23ff:fe92:8e35 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x20<link>

Iam trying to configure netwrok like it's written in Gentoo HandBook:
| Code: |
Gentoo-2012 gentoo # cd /etc/init.d/
Gentoo-2012 init.d # ln -s net.lo net.eth0
Gentoo-2012 init.d # vi /etc/conf.d/net
config_eth0="dhcp"
Gentoo-2012 init.d # /etc/init.d/net.eth0 stop

Iam trying to another restart for network:
| Code: |
Gentoo-2012 init.d # /etc/init.d/network restart
* The network script is deprecated and will be
* removed in the future.
* Please use the net.* scripts to manage your network interfaces.

And to obtain IP address through DHCP
| Code: |
Gentoo-2012 init.d # dhcpcd eth0
dhcpcd[23438]: version 5.5.6 starting
dhcpcd[23438]: eth0: waiting for carrier
dhcpcd[23438]: eth0: carrier acquired

mothes,
So you have the symlink to net.lo for net.eth0 ?
Also what's the contents of your /etc/conf.d/net ? |

Yep, I have:
| Code: |
Gentoo-2012 gentoo # cd /etc/init.d/
Gentoo-2012 init.d # ln -s net.lo net.eth0
|
Contents of /etc/conf.d/net
| Code: |
Gentoo-2012 init.d # vi /etc/conf.d/net
config_eth0="dhcp"
|
I did everything like it's written here: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-amd64.xml?part=4&chap=1

Sorry, that was supposed to read: Do you have the symlink to net.lo for net.eth0 ?
Try
chrooted from a live cd and entering the results here http://kmuto.jp/debian/hcl/ It's possible that you have the the wrong .config setting for the card.
If you want to try a static assignment to double-check then comment config_eth0="dhcp" and enter:
| Code: | config_eth0="192.168.1.100 netmask 255.255.255.0 brd 192.168.1.255"
routes_eth0="default via 192.168.1.1"
|
Good luck  |
