RE: ifup, dhcp troubleshooting
You could try running etherconf to help construct a valid /etc/interfaces
If it not already installed
apt-get install etherconf
If is is already installed dpkg-reconfigure etherconf

Subject: ifup, dhcp troubleshooting
Hello, I've recently compiled a fresh kernel (to get my audio working) and
have lost connectivity. I have a sis900 adapter built in to my board and I
configured the kernel to include the sis900 driver. The driver seems to be
working, ifconfig -a shows eth0, but I can't get an IP. If i try ifup eth0,
after a few seconds i get this:
'eth0: Media Link On 100mbps full-duplex'
then it just sits there, so i ctl-c after a minute or two. Everything
worked before I compiled my own kernel, what components/options may I have
neglected in the kernel?
Thanks in advance,
Paul.
