Description Wade Minter 2001-01-12 15:35:40 UTC
My RTL 8139 card was detected during the install, according to modules.conf
(alias eth0 8139too), but there was no networking configuration during the
install, leaving the network unconfigured upon first boot.  Networking
config should be part of the install.

This defect is considered MUST-FIX for Florence Beta-3

Assigning to a developer.

Comment 3 Erik Troan 2001-01-16 20:50:49 UTC
Was this a GUI or a text mode install?

Comment 4 Wade Minter 2001-01-16 20:52:45 UTC
GUI mode.

Comment 5 Erik Troan 2001-01-16 21:07:06 UTC
Did you look at /etc/modules.conf after the install, or /tmp/modules.conf
during the install? It would be very helpfull to know what's in the second
one.Did you look at /etc/modules.conf after the install, or /tmp/modules.conf

Found the problem.

The loader wasn't using the right module name for these cards (it changed in
2.4), so anaconda didn't know about it. Kudzu had the right name, so it was
correct at reboot.
