I'm installing RH7.2 on a Dell PowerEdge 1650 server. It's got a dual-port Intel gigabit ethernet installed. Redhat installs fine and it identifies the two nics as e1000's and loads the module. I'm testing and installing it connected to a 100Mbit network jack. I add the following line to /etc/modules.conf to force the card to 100/full duplex:
options e1000 Duplex=2,2 Speed=100,100 After rebooting, the messages show that the card is forced to 100/full. The problem is that about 1 minute after touching the network the adapter dies (that's about 100 pings or so). I'm thinking it might be either the driver needs updating or the kernel needs updating. Has anyone gotten 7.2 to work with an Intel e1000 successfully? Did you have to do anything special? -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
