I have a generic 496 running Debian with a NE2000 clone as it's Ethernet card. One morning about 4 days ago, the other machines on the network stopped seeing it. Not this was probably about the time cleanup scripts are run.
I have swapped the card with a card from another Linux box. The card I took out of this box works fine in the other machine, and the one I know have in the Debian box was working great in the other machine. I have rebuilt the kernel, both with and without loadable modules. When I build it with modules I get an error about not finding a file in /lib/modules-2.0.27/net. Building it without module sleminates this problem. However on boot up I always get some messages about SIO* loading? failed because of no such device. I have tried doing a MAKEDEV eth0, but this fails also. I had also recently upgraded from the latest I-connect CD. I out of ideas here. Can someone suggest what to check next please?
