Greetings all; The one that works is on an old Dell. The one that is unresponsive to the exact same treatment is this machine. The major diff is probably the driver, but this wheezy's forcedeth has just worked for several years.
forcedeth is loaded according to an lsmod. And the only way I can get any tracing is by inserting echo's in the start scripts and they still tell me zip. The closest to an error msg in trying to restart networking after editing either the setup file in /etc/network/interfaces.d or from playing with the stuff the configurator icon runs if right clicked and select edit, at the top right of the screen is from RTNETLINK, saying file exists. No other clues. I can't even strace it because I've no way to install strace w/o a network. I don't recall if I installed strace manually, but it is installed on the machine that works. Has anyone got any ideas of how to make the network startup verbose enough to give usefull info? Thanks all.
