Package: linux-image-2.6-s390 Version: 2.6.18 Severity: grave
Hello together, we downloaded Debian4.0 and Debian4.0R1 and detected a bug with the network-interface. This bug exists in both releases. We use it on zSeries [architecture is s390]. The problem: ============ If we reboot the system, the HSI network-interface won't automatically come up. We have to set them up manually in z/VM with echo 1 /sys/bus/ccwgroup/drivers/qeth/"VIRTUAL_ADR_OF_DEVICE"/online and modify the default-route, IP-address of the network-interface and reload the ssh daemon. Now we can connect again with putty. Our solution is a workaround: ============================= We append /etc/init.d/network with the echo command at following position: ### END INIT INFO PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin" ### Our workaround echo 1 > /sys/bus/ccwgroup/drivers/qeth/"VIRTUAL_ADR_OF_DEVICE"/online [ -x /sbin/ifup ] || exit 0 Now the qeth Device comes up at (re)boot automatically and we can connect with putty to the server. Our question: ============= Is it possible to fix this problem? We use a lot of z/Linux servers with more than one network-interface and our workaround is not very efficient ;-) Thanks a lot!
