Update: Given the way the system behaved, I suspected an issue with dhcp lease renewal, which appears to be the case. I created a new SD card with Michael's TFTP/NFS boot partition, but with the rootfs on a second partition (unused by default). Once the system network booted, I logged in via ssh and started a simple while loop (running 'uptime' every 5 seconds). In the USB/serial console, I mounted the SD card rootfs and chrooted to it. After a bit more than 4 minutes, the network went down, taking my ssh console with it. The chroot was still alive, and showed that eth0 no longer had an IP address. Manually assigning an IP address to eth0 restored full functionality, even the ssh terminal came back alive, although it 'skipped' several of the 5-second intervals when it was blocked waiting for the network. I suspect this may be an Ubuntu issue, but regardless it does not appear to be a fundamental problem with the ARM kernel or the 'Bone. I have not yet tried to debug the lease renewal problem. First I'll probably see if a Debian install behaves the same way. If so, I'll likely try to get to the bottom of the problem. If not, I'll chalk it up to those wacky Ubuntu folks, and go back to Debian (or work-around the issue by running off the SD card if I need to stick with Ubuntu). - -- Charles Steinkuehler [email protected] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iEYEARECAAYFAlD8Ke8ACgkQLywbqEHdNFxGUQCgvGKKGj1xtC1Hjie3qIJZ84ZN z/QAoL0w/m5vLXnLVxDOGSFQDnDeUEpe =4aNT -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Master Visual Studio, SharePoint, SQL, ASP.NET, C# 2012, HTML5, CSS, MVC, Windows 8 Apps, JavaScript and much more.
