Bug#115467: problems with Stage 2 of woody PCMCIA net install
Package: boot-floppies
Version: Sept. 23?
Sorry about the lame version info. I couldn't see it when I rebooted,
off the floppies and I'm on my way to the airport... I can gather
more info next week if needed.
I installed from the woody floppies of last week. I selected a PCMCIA
network install, and configured by dhcp. Everything went swell until I
rebooted for stage 2. At that point the ethernet card was not brought
up.
>From memory, here is what I did:
go to a different virtual terminal.
add eth0 to /etc/network/interfaces, i.e.
auto lo eth0
iface lo inet loopback
iface eth0 inet dhcp
start pcmcia services
/etc/init.d/pcmcia start
rejigger the ethernet card.
ifdown eth0
ifup eth0
After I installed pcmcia-cs from tasksel (i.e. the laptop task),
and overwrote all of the configuration files (i.e. always choose I),
then the card is configured fine.
