new install network problem
I just installed the debian base system on a mac
centris 610 (68040). I configured it for network
connection using parameters that worked in macos with
the same interface. Linux recognizes the interface on
boot and ifconfig, route, /etc/init.d/network all look
fine. I can't ping any other machines on my local
network. The installation went well until I tried
'update available packages' in dselect and the ftp
connection failed. Duh. The only thing I can think of
is that debian is booting into runlevel 2. Is this not
allowing the network? Does debian need to boot into
runlevel 3 for this to work? If so, what should I do
to accomplish this? Is there some other obvious tweek?
Thanks in advance for any advice.
