RE: Can't talk to network
Can you ping yourself on the address you have in /etc/network.opts?
Can you ping your gateway? (I assume that you can't, but...)
Do you have the high/low tone with card insertion? Did you configure pcmcia
support in your kernel during install?
What's the output from /etc/pcmcia/network start (or stop,then start)
Do you have link light on your card?
I've been around and around on this one myself... And that's the places I'd
look first...
Regards,
Glen

Subject: Can't talk to network
Forgive me; I'm a newbie at this. With luck, I've found the
right list for this question.
I've just installed Debian potato from floppies successfully,
except... I can't talk to the network to download any packages.
Here's my configuration:
Dell Latitude CPi D300XT
128 MB memory
10 GB hard drive
3Com fast Ethernet card 3CCFE575BT (on the list of working hardware)
I can ping 127.0.0.1, but pings to anything outside the laptop
itself are unsuccessful. I've checked to see that
/etc/pcmcia/network.opts
has the right information in it; it does. I'm stumped. Where do
I go from here?
Thanks,
-Rod Price
