Backtrack Networking problem

aliabbass · 02-07-2012, 07:06 AM

I have installed backtrack 4 with fedora 16. Now in the graphical display i have tried to start networking through terminal by issuing command /etc/init.d/networking start and received the following errors
eth0: error while getting interface flags: No such device
SIOCSIFNETMASK: No such device

Can any body tell me what the problem is? I have googled it and found that Mac address has been replaced and tried the solution given but useless, so kindly help me on that

Secondly after installing backtrack, I cann't boot fedora since i made lvm based installation of fedora, so bootloader is unable to read this partition. I cann't boot fedora and i would like some help on this issue as well from the respected members of the forum

The problem is you are using backtrack. Just delete it and move on.

Now I think you need to fix your fedora. Is there data on it that you want saved? I assume you muffed up the grub or some issue like that.
