Good morning all,
I have just plugged a Netgear card into MDK 8.0 laptop for the first time. The system
automatically detected the card correctly. It then attempted to modprobe using the
correct driver. However the command fails.
executing: './network start eth0'
+ usage: ifup
start cmd exited with status 1
When I try to run the ifup command it also fails when it cannot find a eth0 device. I
looked at /dev/eth0 but that dos not exist. Not having any
experiance with Linix PCMCIA, but I would normally use the following to bring
up an interface.
ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.99 etc..
This does appear to work, I can ping the IP, but I do not have a network cable at the
moment to do a proper test.
Is the above supposed to be...or is their a problem with my setup. Searching on the
web, most assume that the ifup command would work.
Any suggestions (polite) would be appreciated.
TIA
Dave
