Re: [newbie] Boot Sequence Failures?

2000-06-20 Thread Jörgen Johansson

Hello philip

look in /etc/rc.d/init.d
and view the file network and se the line  with chkconfig 2345 10 90
it mean that the network runs on runlevels 2 3 4 5 starts as seq. 10 eg
S10Network
and stops as seq. 90  eg K90Network

check whats the start values is for pcmcia an change the start and stop
values to something
suitable, bare in mind what you ar doing as networking is a big thing in
linux.

good luck
please correct me if i´m wrong also a newbie

You got it - the pcmcia is finally booted allowing Eth0 to do it's thing.  With
Linux, I've found it's best not to sweat the stuff that works fine, but  gives
you anxious moments.

Peace:-)

Take a look at the /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit file, I believe that is the file
that controls the boot sequence.
