Here is some additional info. I am including /var/log/messages output
from the 0607 version of the kernel which works, and the 0629 (today)
version of the kernel which doesn't. Note the differences in the output
from /etc/hotplug/net.agent. I will attempt to look into why this is
happening.
First, the working version from June 7:
Jun 29 12:16:02 lap /etc/hotplug/pci.agent: Setup tulip for PCI slot
02:00.0
Jun 29 12:16:02 lap kernel: Linux Tulip driver version 1.1.13 (May 11,
2002)
Jun 29 12:16:02 lap kernel: PCI: Enabling device 02:00.0 (0000 -> 0003)
Jun 29 12:16:02 lap kernel: eth0: ADMtek Comet rev 17 at 0x1800,
00:E0:98:8E:C0:94, IRQ 9.
Jun 29 12:16:02 lap /etc/hotplug/net.agent: Bad NET invocation: $INTERFACE
is not set
Jun 29 12:16:02 lap /etc/hotplug/net.agent: invoke ifup eth0
Jun 29 12:16:11 lap dhclient: DHCPREQUEST on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port
67
Jun 29 12:16:11 lap dhclient: DHCPACK from 24.35.32.1
Jun 29 12:16:11 lap dhclient: bound to 24.35.32.166 -- renewal in 494444
seconds.
Now, the non-working version from June 29:
Linux Tulip driver version 1.1.13 (May 11, 2002)
PCI: Enabling device 0000:02:00.0 (0000 -> 0003)
PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:02:00.0 to 64
eth0: ADMtek Comet rev 17 at 0x1800, 00:E0:98:8E:C0:94, IRQ 9.
Jun 29 12:25:00 lap /etc/hotplug/pci.agent: Setup tulip for PCI slot
0000:02:00.0
Jun 29 12:25:00 lap kernel: Linux Tulip driver version 1.1.13 (May 11,
2002)
Jun 29 12:25:00 lap kernel: PCI: Enabling device 0000:02:00.0 (0000 ->
0003)
Jun 29 12:25:00 lap kernel: eth0: ADMtek Comet rev 17 at 0x1800,
00:E0:98:8E:C0:94, IRQ 9.
Jun 29 12:25:00 lap /etc/hotplug/net.agent: NET add event not supported
