Re: Can someone still help with install



Hi Gordon

I do have a D-link router not sure of the model though and when i
installed at my house and it worked that router is a Linksys so looks
like a router problem, might try using my pc over the weekend as the
web gateway straight through the adsl modem

Trouble is i did set a static ip and dns seting before i started with
trying to install debian

thanks for you help gordon and to you all on this, my slug is running
and i can now switch off my big power hungry server and let my slug
take over :-)

The output looks fine to me. The problem is obviously a networking
issue. I did find a discussion about something like this problem on
the Ubuntu bug list [1]. It seems like a version of dproxy using on
some routers can react badly to IPv6 [2]. Comment 6 in the Ubuntu bug
thread seems to indicate that IPv6 does not need to be enabled to
trigger this problem. The routers mentioned in this bug thread are the
Actiontec GT701-WG and D-Link DSL-604T. Do either of you have either
of these routers?

If the router is the cause of the problem, then I'm not sure that
there is much we can/should do in the installer to fix or workaround
the problem. A possible workaround in cases when these routers exist
may be to set up the the NSLU2 with a static IP address and DNS
information with the Linksys firmware, and then install Debian.
