Re: problems with 2.2.8 kernel
The kernel automatically sets the route to the interfaces in kernels >=
2.1.(one of them). So you can comment out the route lines in
/etc/init.d/network
AFAICT, that shouldn't have anything to do with why it can't talk on the
network though.
Does ifconfig show the device?
Also, you should use the ne2k-pci module instead of ne2k, if that is your
case.
