I installed YDL 3.0 on my 8500/120, the install failed when requesting CD 2
(I am guessing that=B9s what happened since all of CD 1 stuff I requested wa=
s
installed). I installed most of the rpms I wanted/needed and got X working.
But I am having a hard time getting the machine an IP.
I tried configuring using redhat-config-network (assigning IP through DHCP)=
.
Etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 contents:
DEVICE=3Deth0
ONBOOT=3Dyes
BOOTPROTO=3Ddhcp
Etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth0 reads:
DEVICE=3Deth0
ONBOOT=3Dyes
BOOTPROTO=3Ddhcp
USERCTL=3Dno
PEERDNS=3Dno
TYPE=3DEthernet
Etc/modules.conf has these entries:
Alias char-major-4 off
Alias eth0 3c59x.o (I put that there)
/lib/modules/2.4.20-8DBOOT/kernel/drivers/net has 3c59x.o (I presume the
default ethernet driver for the 8500)
/lib/modules/2.4.20-8DBOOT/modules.dep has the above entry:
/lib/modules/kernel/drivers/net/3c59x.o
Ifconfig =ADa :

Ifup eth0 does the following:
Determining IP information for eth0 ... Failed.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
