Thanks Bob

The network scripts have the ip address as 192.168.1.77, in upgrade mode its responding to 192.168.0.1.
I can ping that address, and I can telnet to port 9000, upslug2 cant find a slug in upgrade mode, but its sitting there with the
top led flashing red.

[root@gb7tf debian-slug]# upslug2 -i di-nslu2.bin 
[no NSLU2 machines found in upgrade mode]
[root@gb7tf debian-slug]# ping 192.168.0.1

At This point you can type anything but no response.
I did find that the network scripts were not being invoked on start up so I've put 
the symlink back S40networking pointing to /etc/init.d/networking in RC3, RC4 and RC5.



Dropping the telnet session ,stops any further attempt to telnet to it, but it can still be pinged.

In normal mode it looks as if its booting, but it can't be pinged.

I'll try adding a script in /etc/init.d to ping the host machine and watch the port with tcpdump.

Any suggestions welcome
