/sys/class/net/lo missing, no lo interface
I'm not sure where to report this problem. Please advise.
I've tried a daily snapshot from
http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/daily-builds/daily/arch-latest/i386/iso-cd/debian-testing-i386-netinst.iso,
downloaded on 2006-09-13.
Installation went fine, but after reboot, the network startup fails
somehow and the box comes up with no network interface, the output
from the ifconfig command is empty.
When I try to manually startup the networking, I get
# /etc/init.d/networking start
Configuring network interfaces...SIOCSIFADDR: No such device
lo: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
lo: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
Failed to bring up lo.
done.
This command does bring up the eth0 interface but not the lo
interface. I can access the machine via the network. What I find
interesting is this command:
# find /sys | grep /net/lo

If I google for lo_temp_temp, I get no hit.
Any advice what to do?
