Was this in text or graphical mode?

What did you enter into the network config screen for all the values?


Comment 3 udippel 2002-07-25 22:53:31 UTC
Graphical mode.

I entered the stuff that you find in the dump:
BOOTPROTO=static
BROADCAST=192.168.116.255
IPADDR=192.168.116.71
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
NETWORK=192.168.116.0
ONBOOT=yes
primaryNS: 192.168.116.200
hostname: rhlimbo
secondaryNS: None

I don't remember if I put a gateway. If I did, it would have been
192.168.116.200

I've tried several scenarios and I can't reproduce this issue - could you try to
reproduce it?

Comment 5 udippel 2002-08-07 15:21:32 UTC
This is what I was thinking; jolly good joke! I am so happy to now have 7.3
running nicely on this machine (hardware-issue??) of DELL Inspiron 8100, that
you can not possibly suggest to wipe my work of the last weeks, can you!
7.3 is absolutely stable, installed precisely like Limbo via CDROM; I even had
the media checked with Limbo and the machine had on that day received a new
harddisk. If traceback of anaconda can't give you a hint, what would you expect
if it went astray again at the same moment with the same traceback?
There is no free sapce on that disk, either.
In short: no, sorry, cannot.

Comment 6 Michael Fulbright 2002-08-13 15:26:05 UTC
Understood.  Glad to hear you have 7.3 running!
