Description Tim Waugh 2004-02-26 15:09:01 UTC 
Description of problem:
Installing over NFS via boot.iso on a Dell Inspiron 3500 with a Xircom
CE3B network card adapter fails to get past the DHCP screen.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Tried from rawhide-20040226 tree.
anaconda-9.91-0.20040225180009

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot boot.iso
2. Try to install over NFS
  
Actual results:
Clicking OK on the DHCP screen (with 'use DHCP' on) does not move on
to the next screen.  On VT3:

* need to set up networking
* going to pick interface
* only have one network device: eth
* going to do getNetConfig
* waiting for link...
* 0 seconds.
* pump told us: SIOCSIFADDR: No such device

On VT4:

Comment 1 Bill Nottingham 2004-02-27 19:53:12 UTC 
The 'simple' way to fix this is to get ethtool GDRVINFO support into
that driver. (xirc2ps_cs?)
Comment 2 Tim Waugh 2004-03-01 12:07:50 UTC 
Yes, xirc2ps_cs is the driver in use.
Comment 3 Tim Waugh 2004-03-01 12:51:05 UTC

Here is a patch I'm testing, based on the corresponding code in the 2.4 tree.
Comment 4 Tim Waugh 2004-03-01 14:18:33 UTC 
Yes, this one-line patch fixes it.
