Network settings crashin system
Hi all,
After much tearing out of hair I've finally managed to figure out what is causing Mandrake to mess up - the network settings.
Upon boot I have to go into interactive startup mode and tell it not to start up the network service or else it crashes straight off the bat.
Starting up the graphical environment and trying to configure the connection through that also results in the system hanging when trying to restart the network.
I use an ADSL always on connection that doesn't require a login (the modem does all that). Under Mdk 10 CE I had the connection configured as a LAN connection and that always worked fine but 10.1 refuses to work like this. I tried configuring it as an ASDL PPPoE connection but it wouldn't connect (though it didn't hang the system which is a start I guess). The only 2 things that have changed are my version of Mandrake and the NiC I'm using (I changed motherboards recently and am using the internal one). I'm doing all this on a fresh install of MDK 10.1OE.
Any ideas?
