  It should be possible to read the BIOS setting for this option and
  behave accordingly. Please give full details of how to read and
interpret
  the information stored in the CMOS for all versions of AMI BIOS, and
I'll
  take a look at this.
 [Venkatesh Ramamurthy]  When i meant BIOS setting option i meant the
 SCSI BIOS settings not system BIOS option. The two SCSI controllers are of
 different make. This situation is made worse when the system has many
cards
 of different makes and one of the controller somewhere in the middle of
all
 the slots is made the boot controller.

kernel 2.2.16 in redhat 7.0

2000-10-03 Thread Florent Cueto



 
The kernel provided with the redhat 7.0 cannot be 
compiled with ip masquerading on & icmp masquerading on (using gcc and kgcc, 
I got the same error).
I could not found any information about 
that.
Anyone can help ?
 


Re: 2.2 / 2.4 ethernet detection order

2000-09-05 Thread Florent Cueto

I got the same problem.
The consequence was that if my eth0 card (static ip) was "ifupped" before my
eth1 card (dhcp), it became impossible to ifup my eth1 card (I could no more
obtain an ip from the dhcp server).
