The box has an Asus A7N8X with an Athlon CPU, and runs Debian testing/unstable. There are 2 RT8139 NICs.
I have a custom 2.4.22 kernel built to use iptables, an ide-cd burner, a couple of USB devices (I'm not sure what is relevant to the problem), and so on. The kernel boots to the point of installing the usb modules, and barfs on ehci -- modprobe segfaults twice, but it manages to set up the scanner. The next message on the screen is: Cleaning: /etc/network/ifstate at which point, it hangs. Nothing works except a power cycle. I have fiddled around with a numer of settings, including commenting out the "auto" entries in /etc/network/interfaces, to no avail. Does anyone have any ideas? I aked on debian-user ance already, and got no response. TIA Cam -- Cam Ellison Ph.D. R.Psych.
