this bug is still present in RHEL 5.1 (2.6.18-53.el5) and the described dirty hack still works (This is a mass-update to all current FC6 kernel bugs in NEW state) Hello, I'm reviewing this bug list as part of the kernel bug triage project, an attempt to isolate current bugs in the Fedora kernel. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/KernelBugTriage I am CC'ing myself to this bug, however this version of Fedora is no longer maintained. Please attempt to reproduce this bug with a current version of Fedora (presently Fedora 8). If the bug no longer exists, please close the bug or I'll do so in a few days if there is no further information lodged. Thanks for using Fedora! Per the previous comment in this bug, I am closing it as INSUFFICIENT_DATA, since no information has been lodged for over 30 days. Please re-open this bug or file a new one if you can provide the requested data, and thanks for filing the original report! |
Right after a boot, "ifconfig -a" gives the following in lieu of eth0 __tmp1804289383 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:B0:D0:14:A7:14 BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 lg file transmission:1000 RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:0 (0.0 b) Interruption:3 Adresse de base:0xac00 Because of this the "network" service will not start correctly. If I do "modprobe -r eth0; modprobe eth0", the 3c59x module is reloaded (correctly) and eth0 shows normally in "ifconfig -a". The "network" service can then start normally. It looks like this device need extra time at power on. As a workaround, I have included a "modprobe -r eth0" at the start of /etc/init.d/network it starts all right. Same thing with kernel 2.6.18-1.2798.fc and 2.6.18-1.2849.fc6. Note that I did not have this issue whith 2.6.17-1.2142_FC4.
