Re: Re: Woody bf2.4 laptop network setup broken?
Dear David:
Sorry about the delay in replying. I was a bit sick this week. In
the end, I configured the network on my laptop manually at the console using
the original bf2.4 boot floppies and installed Woody from the network
(before I got your message), so now I cannot test your boot floppies on my
already-configured laptop :-( However, the problem was definitely a bug
(albeit an easily circumvenable one) and other users will likely run into the same problem. I'm sorry I can't be the one to test it but I'm appreciative nonetheless.
Thanks,
Eduardo

I just built new images (untested) that I believe fix this problem and
placed them on :
<A HREF="http://people.debian.org/~dwhedon/boot-floppies/3.0.24-pre/" TARGET="_blank
">http://people.debian.org/~dwhedon/boot-floppies/3.0.24-pre/</a>
The problem appears to only appear for people doing static (non-dhcp)
network configuration with pcmcia adapters. Can you please test the
fix? If you report that the problem is fixed I will commit the change
and close Bug#156015 (the change I made is just what is proposed in
the bug report, FYI.)
Thanks for the report,
David
