Eth0 and Eth1 disappeared in Debian 3.1 Sarge...
Hi there,
I've tried to update the kernel that is used during the base install of Debian 3.1 Sarge to a 2.6 kernel. It didn't really go as planned so I used the Grub menu at start up to start the "old" 2.4 kernel again.
Now when I do this, during booting it says at Eth0 and Eth1 "no such device" eventhough before I ever started compiling the 2.6 kernel(the one that didn't work) they worked perfectly. They also don't show up in the syslog as they did before.
Both Eth0 and Eth1 are a 3Com905C-TC-M 10/100MBit card.
In /etc/network/interfaces they are still listed with the correct IP's etc. but when I do an ifconfig or ifconfig -a all that is shown is the loopback interface.. lo...
When I look at /lib/modules/<kernelversion>/kernel/drivers/net/ both have the right drivers listed... only difference there is, is that the kernel I'm not using has them with .ko and the kernel I am using is with .0.
I don't get it? Nothing has changed with the 2.4 kernel so I think it should work eventhough I tried booting with the 2.6 kernel...
Am I missing something here?
I am a newbie btw...
