Hi, I'm trying to install Gentoo on an old machine, but I run into a problem with getting it on the net. When the machine boots it apparently autodetects the NIC but when I rund 'dhcpcd eth0', I get a hundred million entries in /var/log/everything/current that look like this:
[dhcpcd]: dhcpStop: ioctl SIOCSIFADDR: Bad file descriptor [dhcpcd]: dhcpStop: ioctl SIOCSIFFLAGS: Bad file descriptor [dhcpcd]: terminating on signal 4 What do they mean and what can I do to fix it? I have tried with two different NIC's, none of them work, but they both work in win95, which is installed on the computer. Thanks in advance.
