getting eth0 & usb zip up and running
Hello,
I posted before but got no response. Maybe cuz I'm SO newbie-esqe. sorry. I'm gonna try again, and simplify my qustion. Linux seems to SEE the network card, brand, and driver is installed (tulip for the linksys) but it cannot be activated. same for my usb zip - it identifies it as 250 zip etc, but cannot be mounted. i'm doing SOMETHING terribly wrong and or dumb. I would LOVE any help, thoughts or a push towards books or tutorials that would straighten me out. last thing: I'm going on line via router, and I have some irq error messages of some sort when I boot - although RH9 does in fact boot and work. thank you very much.:D fp |

let's start with the failure stuff during boot. I get: hda: IRQ probe failed (0xfef8) no response (status=0x0a) same with hdb hdc: drive not ready for command hdc: timeout waiting for dma (these are not all one after the other, but that's what I get.) Now in network configuration tools. when I try to 'activate' it says: /sbin/ifup:configuration for eth0 not found. again I have a lynksys 10/100 pci card (it worked last time I used it in windows) and am running a freshly installed RH9 the zip message may be a media thing. does this mean that I cannot use zips to xfer windows docs (excel/word/pics)? i will try a fresh zip disc and format it via linux and see. thanks very much fp |

The zip stuff, it also might be relivated to disk configs... Heh what kind of kernel are you using? There are known IDE problems with the 2.4.21 kernel. To get known what kernel version you're using type: uname -r Search the RedHat support for a patch or downgrade the kernel to 2.4.20 (but note that this kernel needs to be patched because of the ptracebug) Good luck Good luck |
