Hi Peter, and listers, This is my /etc/init.d/network
#! /bin/sh
ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1
route add -net 127.0.0.0
what should I add to define the netmask?
Just add netmask 255.0.0.0 to the end of my route line?
I use diald and whenever a link is brought up or comes down, it complains
about the netmasks
Any suggestions most appreciated.
If anyone is curious, I've managed to get my sb16 pnp working just fine
now. My kernel woes were linked to binutils, which for some reason,
either I upgraded or it happened in dselect without my really taking
notice. Going back to the stable version of binutil allowed me to compile
my now 2.1.20 kernel just fine. Quake anyone?
