Fail to detect NIC
Hi folks,
CentOS 4.4 x86_64 Occasionally on starting the PC it failed to detect the NIC "eth0" (only the onboard NIC, no additional) After login # ifconfig did not show "eth0" # /etc/rc.d/init.d/network start Code:
Bringing up loopback interface [ok] I have to poweroff the PC several times before eth0 can be detected. It only happened recently. Pls advise where I have to check. TIA B.R. satimis |
does it work if you disable this script at boot-time and 'modprobe <driverName>; ifconfig eth0 up' yourself?

$ cat /etc/sysconfig/network Code:

# modprobe eth0 then run # ifconfig to see whether eth0 is up? Tks B.R. satimis |
the script was the one you mentioned running in your first post, /etc/rc.d/init.d/network (or any startup network-related scripts).

im assuming you know what module it is, if you dont know exactly then let us know the network portion of 'lspci' to help out. |
