'usually' most network cards use an IRQ of 10 or 11 or 5 and an IO of 0x300
or 0x320
What network card do you have?
These are the files you need after you get your card working. IRQ IO kernel
driver etc..
#/etc/HOSTNAME
linux.dan-hender.com
#/etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain
192.168.0.1 epoch
192.168.0.2 linux.dan-hender.com linux
192.168.0.3 indy.dan-hender.com indy
#/etc/sysconfig/network
NETWORKING=yes
HOSTNAME=linux.dan-hender.com
DOMAINNAME=dan-hander.com
#GATEWAY=
#GATEWAYDEV=
#/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-lo
DEVICE=lo
IPADDR=127.0.0.1
NETMASK=255.0.0.0
NETWORK=127.0.0.0
BROADCAST=127.255.255.255
ONBOOT=yes
BOOTPROTO=none
#/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
DEVICE=eth0
IPADDR=192.168.0.2
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
NETWORK=192.168.0.0
BROADCAST=192.168.0.255
ONBOOT=yes
BOOTPROTO=none
Notice the ONBOOT=yes
Then make this symbolic link
S10network -> ../init.d/network
network being in /etc/rc.d/init.d
To make this link, do this: ln -s /etc/rc.d/init.d/network
/etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S10network
I've noticed on one of the lists I'm on, that dan-hender.com CAN NOT BE
dan_hender.com. Just something to keep in mind when making up your own
'fake' domain name.
