i have just installed debian on my machine, however the network is "unreachable." i have an smc with a 21041 dec-chipset on it. the module (tulip) was added without any problem upon installation. however when i rebooted the system i get these errors:
SIOCSIFFLAGS: Try again SIOCADDRT: Network is unreachable SIOCADDRT: Network is unreachable "ifconfig" and "route" only show the "lo" interface. no eth0. i have been able to get the same type of card to work with debian sucsessfully, which makes this frustrating. the only difference is this card connected via a bnc connector, the 'working machine' was 10baseT. i know that i will need the eth0 interface for this to work. i would appreciate some direction. ps. i tried "route add default eth0" and then "route add default gw xx.yy.zz.1" which was a cheap hack that i have seen work before. however i had no sucess with this. thanks to whom reply, dennis ================================================================= | dpk | | | DECS, Systems Undergrad | It is better for them to think you | =========================== a fool, than to open your mouth | | work: 353.8892 | and prove it. -Mark Twain | | page: 253.0724 | | ================================================================= -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
