21041 dec-chip
i have just installed debian on my machine, however the network is
"unreachable." i have an smc with a 21041 dec-chipset on it. the module
(tulip) was added without any problem upon installation. however when i
rebooted the system i get these errors:
SIOCSIFFLAGS: Try again
SIOCADDRT: Network is unreachable
SIOCADDRT: Network is unreachable
"ifconfig" and "route" only show the "lo" interface. no eth0. i have
been able to get the same type of card to work with debian sucsessfully,
which makes this frustrating. the only difference is this card connected
via a bnc connector, the 'working machine' was 10baseT. i know that i
will need the eth0 interface for this to work. i would appreciate some
direction.
ps. i tried "route add default eth0" and then
"route add default gw xx.yy.zz.1" which was a cheap hack that i have seen
work before. however i had no sucess with this.
thanks to whom reply,
dennis
