Subject: Boot Floppy Problems using PCMCIA Network Card
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Package: boot-floppies
Version: 2.1.12

Following Section 7 (Using dbootstrap for Initial System Configuration) of the 
"Installing
Debian GNU/Linux 2.1 For Intel x86" document, I tried to install Debian on a Toshiba 
Tecra
8000 with a PCMCIA 3Com 3c589D-TP NIC over NFS.  It looked good until I got to 7.14
``Install the Base System''.  The laptop would fail to contact the NFS server and the 
link
light on the network switch was not lit.


At the console, running 'ifconfig eth0 up' produces:

eth0: unknown interface


Running 'ifconfig -a' only shows:

lo        Link encap:Local Loopback
          inet addr:127.0.0.1  Bcast:127.255.255.255  Mask:255.0.0.0
          UP BROADCAST LOOPBACK RUNNING  MTU:3584  Metric:1
          RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          Collisions:0


Running 'lsmod' shows that the pcmcia and network modules loaded:

Module         Pages    Used by
3c589_cs           2            0
psaux              1            0
smbfs              6            0
nfs               12            4
cdrom              1            0
ds                 2    [3c589_cs]      2

pcmcia_core        9    [3c589_cs ds i82365]    0


Running 'ps' shows card manager is running:

1       (init)
19      (dbootstrap)
2       (kflushd)
20      (sh)
2459    (cardmgr)
2494    (ps)
3       (kswapd)
4       (md_thread)
5       (md_thread)
820     (nfsiod)
821     (nfsiod)
822     (nfsiod)
823     (nfsiod)


Running '/target/etc/init.d/pcmcia restart' shows the following:

Shutting down PCMCIA services:start-stop-daemon: not found
 cardmgrstart-stop-daemon: not found
.
Starting PCMCIA services: modules/lib/modules/2.0.38/pcmcia/pcmcia_core.o: a module 
named
pcmcia_core already exists
/lib/modules/2.0.38/pcmcia/i82365.o: a module named i82365 already exists
/lib/modules/2.0.38/pcmcia/ds.o: a module named ds already exists
start-stop-daemon: not found
 cardmgr.
start-stop-daemon: not found


This very same laptop had RedHat Linux 6.2 running on it without any network problems
before it got blown away for Debian.

We asked for a response from the bug submitter, testing the new
versions of the boot-floppies, since we cannot reproduce this problem,
or the bug report is for an old and obsolete version of the
boot-floppies.

Therefore, we are closing this bug.  That does not mean we do not care
about the issue you reported, it simply means that we feel that this
issue has been fixed already.  Please feel free to file a new bug or
request we open your bug if you can still reproduce your problem on
new versions.
