From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040510 Description of problem: My ethernet card, SMC 8040TX, was not detected during installation. I went to Network setup and selected pcnet_cs as the driver. Rebooted the system and life was good. However, when I reboot anytime, the system doesn't recognize the pcnet_cs driver. I have to delete the ETH0 definitions then reboot. The system correctly reinstalls the driver and I have to activate manually. Any ideas? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Boot computer 2.Network card not recognized 3. Actual Results: Network card driver doesn't work after boot Expected Results: Network card driver should have worked Additional info:
The part of my problem that requires the definitions to be activated after boot is a duplicate of problem 123457 This will correct the problem: Edit /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 and set 'ONBOOT=no'. The other part of the problem, the inability of FC2 to detect my PCMCIA card has to with the priority of the PCMCIA service vs. Network during boot. This will correct: Open /etc/init.d/pcmcia Change the line # chkconfig: 2345 24 96 to # chkconfig: 2345 09 96 This is a comment but used as a tag for the prioritization routine. Execute chkconfig --level 2345 pcmcia reset to resolve issue
