Missing eth0 on a KII 6 - 400
Last modified: 2008-05-01 11:37:55 EDT
I've upgraded from 6.1 to 6.2. I have a ne_2K-pci NIC When using 6.1, the network card works fine and ifconfig reports lo and eth0 When using 6.2 ifconfig only shows lo I've tried Netconfig and Linuxconf but I can't ping anything except localhost: "Network unreachable" I've checked /proc/pci and the board is present. Thanks in advance
This I assume is a module? I've always had problems like that and typically it's almost always configuration. Check your /etc/modules.conf and make sure the correct alias for your driver is present. If it is then try using modprobe to load the driver and also try depmod -a to make sure it is looking in the right place for you modules. If it is searching through a directory of older modules you should get errors about undefined symbols etc from depmod -a. -Stan Bubrouski
The problem was dued to an incomplete upgrade. upload.log had a error message about the kernel upgrage from 2.12 to 2.14-0.5 I upgraded to 2.2.14-12 and eth0 startted working. Thanks for your help. Carlos Almeida
