Bug#351491: pcmcia NIC isn't brought up after install
Package: debian-installer
I installed Debian with the Sarge netinstall cdrom, version 3.1r1.
During the installation, the pcmcia networking card were recognized without
problem.
But after the first reboot, the card wasn't brought up. The proper modules were
loaded, but it seems that ifupdown doesn't bring it up at startup, or when
using /etc/init.d/networking/start
Changing
mapping hotplug
script grep
map eth0
to
auto eth0
in /etc/network/interfaces solved the problem.
I know this isn't the official way for pcmcia cards, but mapping with hotplug
fails.
