Can't add "local" route

[Andreas Jaehnigen <jaehnias@IMS.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>]

Hi everybody....

I'm trying to install Debian on a Sparc clone... It runs kernel 2.2.12
(compiled it myself). A Sun Lance ethernet card is successfully detected upon
kernel startup.
However, initialisation scripts give me errors, especially the "network ones".
in /etc/rcS.d/

The script "S40" tries to add some routes.. and whoooooops! ....

SIOCADDRT: Invalid argument

What's going wrong here? I suppose I forgot to add some sort of support in the
kernel-- but which kind of??
Hints are greatly appreciated!! And thanks!! :-))
