I have compiled support for the cards I am using (they are both : of the same type) but only one is detected at boot time. I found a : howto that describes a method that involves adding the line : "ether=0,0,eth1" to my lilo.conf file but I continuosly get syntax : errors when doing this and I cant figure out where in the lilo.conf file : to put this line... Any help would be appreciated. : : Thanks in advance : Rob
Yeah, it's a bit unclear at first. What you want to do is put the information on the append line, like this: append="mem=96M ether=10,0x300,eth0 ether=11,0x2e0,eth1" I'd recommend you put in the real values rather than 0,0 - that enables autoprobing and let's face it, you do want to know which interface is which, don't you? I hope this helps. By the way, my two cards are 3C509B's. -- Nathan Norman MidcoNet - 410 South Phillips Avenue - Sioux Falls, SD 57104 phone: (605) 334-4454 fax: (605) 335-1173 mailto://[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.midco.net PGP Key ID: 0xA33B86E9 - Public key available at keyservers PGP Key fingerprint: CE03 10AF 3281 1858 9D32 C2AB 936D C472 -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
