Hi Shane,
I installed Linux (Redhat 7.1) (wiped out Win2k)
yesterday. There is a small problem with the ethernet
card initialization. I am using the DHCP option for my
network. But when in the normal booting mode (init 3),
the message "Bringing up eth0 interface" comes and
then the machine gets caught up in that (it does not
hang, but it does not go forward). So what I did was
to boot in the single user mode and then insmod the
3c59x module (3com card) and then do an "init 3" .
This time, it works fine and the eth0 interface comes
up and everything goes fine. Well, I tried looking
into the etc/sysconfig/ and init.d/ scripts, but has
not been able to find out what is the problem till
now. I will try again. If you know what is the
problem, please do tell me.
