okay, I am sorry for having provided incomplete details..
I am using Debian 2.1r5 (downloaded only yesterday) on my
pentium III machine with realtek RTL8139 ethernet card.
I had installed from floppy earlier.. but probably botched up a
few things so decided to install from dos, following some very good
suggestions I got from this list. But the problem still remains and I
still get Network Unreachable.
#ping 144.16.116.247
PING 144.16.116.247 (144.16.116.247): 56 data bytes
ping: sendto: Network is unreachable
ping: wrote 144.16.116.247 64 chars, ret=-1
when I do ifconfig I get the following output..
#ifconfig
lo Link encap:Local Loopback
inet addr:127.0.0.1 Bcast:127.255.255.255 Mask:255.0.0.0
UP BROADCAST LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:3584 Metric:1

#lsmod
Modules Pages Used by
lsmod does not give any other output.. does that mean no modules
are installed?
I didn't do anything spl after all the installation ended.. do I
have to start/configure something??
I have a few more questions to ask which may be I will send in
next mail..
