Hello everyone, I'm in deep trouble: Yesterday, I updated my remote server, which is sitting in Belgium (I'm in NJ,USA), using dselect. My box is a P100 running potato. I then rebooted, and nothing came up!
This morning I called someone over there, who told me the machine boots, but says eth0 is not working. My friend in Belgium knows almost nothing about Linux, so I can't ask him to fix this, and I can't do anything, since I can't even telnet the thing. So I have several questions: - Is anyone aware of problems with network cards introduced by new updates in potato (I didn't really bother to check while the update was being made, but I think it updated the kernel). And how to fix those... - I figure the only solution (besides taking the plane to Belgium) would be to send a disk to my friend, with a working kernel, and a telnetd, and ask him to boot the floppy, and then try fixing the thing from here. Does anyone know how I can find/make such a floppy? - Any other solutions you can think of? Thanks in advance, Stefan.
