Thank you, oh thank you. Now I can play with the new kernel on my new
system (it has a 3c905).
Strange thing, though. With the 10/10 snapshot, the Debian
/etc/init.d/network script doesn't work any more. The ifconfig eth0
keeps trying to contact the nameservers from /etc/resolv.conf, which it
can't until it's configured, right?
If I comment out the nameservers lines from /etc/resolv.conf, run
ifconfig, and then uncomment them, everything seems to be running fine.
Details, FWTW:
2.1.57-VGER-CVS971010 (patched from vanilla 2.1.57)
3c59x as module
running kerneld
/etc/init.d/network (IP changed to protect the innocent):
******************************
#! /bin/sh
ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1
route add -net 127.0.0.0
IPADDR=a.b.c.d
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
NETWORK=a.b.c.0
BROADCAST=a.b.c.255
GATEWAY=a.b.c.e
ifconfig eth0 ${IPADDR} netmask ${NETMASK} broadcast ${BROADCAST}
route add -net ${NETWORK}
[ "${GATEWAY}" ] && route add default gw ${GATEWAY} metric 1
