I had the same problem, so I added this to my rc.local script. Modify it to run on your run level. I don't have RH up right now, so I may get the S-script names wrong in some of the file names, but you'll get the idea. The actual S-scripts can be found in the /etc/rc.d/rc.#/ directory, # signifying the run level you are using. Modify the script to fit. Finally, BLAME LINUXCONF!! /etc/rc.d/rc.local -- cut -- echo "Bringing up ethernet if failed..." # Remove mods that failed to load in time (this will not affect if loaded properly) echo "Removing failed mods" /sbin/modprobe -r <name of eth0 mod> /sbin/modprobe -r <name of eth1 mod> # Load mods in order you want eth#s echo "Reloading modules" /sbin/modprobe <name of eth0 mod> /sbin/modprobe <name of eth1 mod> # Restart network asignments # Check the S# in this file echo "Reloading network settings:" /etc/rc.d/rc.3/S10network reload # Restart inet services # Check the S# in these files echo "Restarting inet services:" /etc/rc.d/rc.3/S35inet restart /etc/rc.d/rc.3/S50gpm restart (or something, I don't use) #end rc.local This should work.

I had the same problem, so I added this to my rc.local script. Modify it to run on run level five. I don't have RH up right now, so I may get the S-numbers wrong, but you'll get the idea.

De Witt Sent: Wednesday, August 16, 2000 8:07 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RedHat 6.2 Ethernet Setup and Install problems. Need help. I just installed RedHat 6.2 and am having problems with the ethernet start up. I believe that this comes from the failure of RedHat to have properly detected and set up the ethernet cards at install time. I have two SMC EZ net cards. These have been detected and properly installed in other distro's that have run on this machne in the past. AT boot up starting Interface eth0 fails (this is to be expected as this will be the main internet connection when DSL is installed on the 24th, this will be a PPPoE connection) How ever eth1 fails to start also this card is connected to a hub and should start and see the network. When I change the net work settings I get a error message that /etc/rc.d/rc5.d/S10 network reload is taking too long. This leads me to believe that the cards are not properly detected and installed. This plus the fact that the during install the install never asked to install the printer and modem etc.. So how do I get the hardware to be installed and the eth1 interface to come up and run.? In Mandradke this would be an eaiser thing for me but being new to redhat it is hard for me to figure out. _______________________________________________ Redhat-install-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-install-list
