Hi, I have got two ethernet adapters in a Sparc 5 running Debian 2.2. I am attempting to swop the ethernet adapters around by passing the following to the kernel at the SILO prompt: | Linux ether=38,0x6400,eth0 ether=55,0x4a00,eth1 However, on bootup I still get this: | sunhme.c:v1.10 27/Jan/99 David S. Miller (davem@caipfs.rutgers.edu) | eth0: HAPPY MEAL (SBUS) 10/100baseT Ethernet 08:00:20:75:12:80 | sunlance.c:v1.12 11/Mar/99 Miguel de Icaza (miguel@nuclecu.unam.mx) | eth1: LANCE 08:00:20:75:12:80 | eth1: using auto-carrier-detection. | eth1: Carrier Lost, trying TPE | eth0: Link is up using internal transceiver at 100Mb/s, Full Duplex. If I do an ifconfig to show the interrupts for the network interfaces I get the following: | eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 08:00:20:75:12:80 | inet addr:192.168.0.99 Bcast:192.168.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 | UP BROADCAST RUNNING PROMISC MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 | RX packets:200 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 | TX packets:170 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 | collisions:0 txqueuelen:100 | Interrupt:55 Base address:0x4a00 | | eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 08:00:20:75:12:80 | inet addr:192.168.0.2 Bcast:192.168.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 | UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 | RX packets:134 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 | TX packets:0 errors:1 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:1 | collisions:0 txqueuelen:100 | Interrupt:38 Base address:0x6400 Is the ether= a feature only associated with i386 or is it compatible with Sparc as well? Kind Regards, Chris
