Hi I've recently started playing around with busybox and buildroot and embedded linux in general. Based on a VIA Nano based mini-itx board I have a buildroot based setup running on a Compact Flash card, but I've hit a snag.
I want to setup eth0 so it's automatically brought up. I know the hardware works as I can do this: udhcpc eth0 and it gets an ip address and I can ping to both ip addresses and domain names. The problem I'm having is with the /etc/network/interfaces file. As after being built by buildroot, it is: # Configure Loopback auto lo iface lo inet loopback now I want to change it to this: auto lo eth0 allow-hotplug eth0 iface lo inet loopback iface eth0 inet dhcp The problem I'm having is that no matter how and when I change the file, it's always read by the target as the first version above. I've tried to modify it on the target machine, I've also try to modify it on the development machine. If I modify it on the dev machine and boot up the target, it still is read as the first version, even if I look at it with nano. If I put it back in the dev machine, I get the modified version. If I read it on another machine, I get the modified version as well, but the target always reads it as the original version. File modifications on the dev machine are always done with the target powered down, and before pulling the CF card out of the dev machine I always make sure it's dismounted first. What am I doing wrong? Thanks Steven Graham _______________________________________________ busybox mailing list [email protected] http://lists.busybox.net/mailman/listinfo/busybox
